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
You are the soul of the soul of the universe, and your name is Love.
Rumi
Behead yourself!... Dissolve your whole body into Vision: become seeing, seeing, seeing!
Rumi
I didn't come here of my own accord, and I can't leave that way. Whoever brought me here will have to take me home.
Rumi
The Lover is ever drunk with Love. He is mad. She is free. He sings with delight. She dances in ecstasy. Caught by our own thoughts, we worry about everything. But once we get drunk on that Love Whatever will be, will be.
Rumi
You are the fountain of the sun. I'm the shadow of a willow. You fall upon my forehead. I melt. You slip into my heart. It spills open. You surround me with such sweetness. I make it my home.
Rumi
This world is full of remedies. But you have no remedy until God opens a window for you. You may not be aware of that remedy just now. In the hour of need it will be made clear to you. The Prophet said God made a remedy for every pain.
Rumi
What will our children do in the morning if they do not see us fly?
Rumi
I have no name for what circles so perfectly.
Rumi
Return from existence to nonexistence. You are seeking the Lord and you belong to him. Nonexistence is a place of income flee it not. This existence of more and less is a place of expenditure.
Rumi
You are the root of heaven, the morning star, the bright moon, the house of endless Love
Rumi
Oh, wandering One, if you are in search of the greatest treasure, don't look outside. Look within, and seek That.
Rumi
...Blessed is anyone who knows who he or she really is and builds a place to live there.
Rumi
To me nothing in the world is as precious as a genuine smile, especially from a child.
Rumi
If you are wholly perplexed and in straits, have patience, for patience is the key to joy.
Rumi
I went inside my heart to see how it was. Something there makes me hear the whole world weeping.
Rumi
Beyond the rightness or wrongness of things there is a field, I'll meet you there
Rumi
For the water animals, the ocean is like a garden for the land animals, it is death and pain.
Rumi
Why should I be weary when every cell of my body is bursting with life?
Rumi
Love is from the infinite, and will remain until eternity.
Rumi
Daylight, full of small dancing particles and the one great turning, our souls are dancing with you, without feet, they dance. Can you see them when I whisper in your ear? All day and night, music, a quiet, bright reedsong. If it fades, we fade.
Rumi
