More quotes by Rumi
Tend to your vital heart, and all that you worry about will be solved.
Rumi
There is a city in which you find everything you desire-handsome people, pleasures, ornaments of every kind-all that the natural person craves. However, you cannot find a single wise person there.
Rumi
Love itself describes its own perfection. Be speechless and listen.
Rumi
Tender words we spoke to one another are sealed in the secret vaults of heaven. One day like rain, they will fall to earth and grow green all over the world.
Rumi
I am so close, I may look distant. So completely mixed with you, I may look separate. So out in the open, I appear hidden. So silent, because I am constantly talking with you.
Rumi
Know then that the body is merely a garment. Go seek the wearer, not the cloak.
Rumi
I want that love that moved the mountains. I want that love that split the ocean. I want that love that made the winds tremble. I want that love that roared like thunder. I want that love that will raise the dead. I want that love that lifts us to ecstasy. I want that love that is the silence of eternity.
Rumi
Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with heart and soul there is no such thing as separation.
Rumi
There's a path from your HEART to mine.
Rumi
LOVE is what gives joy to giving joy.
Rumi
I said: what about my eyes? God said: Keep them on the road. I said: what about my passion? God said: Keep it burning. I said: what about my heart? God said: Tell me what you hold inside it? I said: pain and sorrow? He said: Stay with it. The wound is the place where the Light enters you.
Rumi
Tie two birds together. They will not be able to fly, even though they now have four wings.
Rumi
Every moment I shape my destiny with a chisel - I am the carpenter of my own soul.
Rumi
I will soothe you and heal you, I will bring you roses. I too have been covered with thorns.
Rumi
Open the window of your heart and let the Spirit speak
Rumi
The body is a device to calculate the astronomy of the spirit. Look through that astrolabe and become oceanic.
Rumi
At every moment, Love's voice talks to us from left and from right. All we have to do is to know how to listen.
Rumi
The water has a Water that is driving it The spirit has a Spirit that is Calling it.
Rumi
Don't stray from your Heart's intent.
Rumi
I am so happy, I cannot be contained in the world But like a spirit, I am hidden from the eyes of the world.
Rumi
