Someone who goes with a half a loaf of bread to a small place that fits like a nest around him, someone who wants no more, who is not himself longed for by anyone else. He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.

More quotes by Rumi
I love myself...I love you. I love you...I love myself.
Rumi
Your kindness cannot be said. You open doors in the sky. You ease the heart and make God's qualities visible.
Rumi
The mirror of the heart must be clear, so you can discern the ugly from the beautiful.
Rumi
The desire to know your own soul will end all other desires.
Rumi
Love is the Water of Life Everything other than love for the most beautiful God is agony of the spirit, though it be sugar- eating. What is agony of the spirit? To advance toward death without seizing hold of the Water of Life.
Rumi
People who repress desires often turn, suddenly, into hypocrites.
Rumi
What? Are you still pretending you are separate from the Beloved?
Rumi
Your real country is where you're heading, not where you are.
Rumi
The miracle of Jesus is himself, not what he said or did about the future. Forget the future. I'd worship someone who could do that.
Rumi
I want a heart which is split, part by part, because of the pain of separation from God, so that I might explain my longing and complaint to it.
Rumi
This discipline and rough treatment are a furnace to extract the silver from the dross. This testing purifies the gold by boiling the scum away.
Rumi
I am a bird of God's garden and I do not belong to this dusty world For a day or two they have put me here in this cage of my own body I did not come here of my own I will not return of my own to my own country.
Rumi
Love Came.... and became like blood in my body. It rushed through my veins and encircled my Heart. Everywhere I looked, I saw One Thing.... Love's Name written on my limbs, on my left palm, on my forehead, on the back of my neck, on my right big toe... Oh, my friend, all that you see of me is just a shell, and the rest belongs to Love.
Rumi
Such a strong thing LOVE, changes everything.
Rumi
Oh sky, without me, do not change, Oh moon, without me, do not shine Oh earth, without me, do not grow, Oh time, without me, do not go. ...Oh, you cannot go, without me.
Rumi
I can heal a broken heart with a smile.
Rumi
Sometimes we plan a trip to one place, but something takes us to another
Rumi
For me to praise is interrupting praise.
Rumi
As you live Deeper in the Heart, the Mirror gets clearer and cleaner.
Rumi
Be quiet now and wait. It may be that the ocean one, the one we desire so to move into and become, desires us out here on land a little longer, going our sundry roads to the shore.
Rumi
