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
The day is conscious of itself.
Rumi
Seek the sound that never ceases. Seek the sun that never sets.
Rumi
One day you will take me completely out of myself, I'll do what the angels cannot do. Your eyelash will write on my cheek the poem that hasn't been thought of.
Rumi
Happy, not from anything that happens. Warm, not from fire or a hot bath. Light, I register zero on a scale.
Rumi
I will be waiting here.... For your silence to break, For your soul to shake, For your love to wake!
Rumi
There is a window from one heart to another heart.
Rumi
Empathy is even better than talking in one language
Rumi
Your heart knows the way. Run in that direction.
Rumi
Love is the whole thing. We are only pieces.
Rumi
The gifts of lovers to one another are, in respect to love, nothing but forms yet, they testify to invisible love.
Rumi
The work of magic is this, that it breathes and at every breath transforms realities.
Rumi
Have you ever gotten breathless before from a beautiful face, for i see you there, my dear.
Rumi
A new moon teaches gradualness and deliberation and how one gives birth to oneself slowly. Patience with small details makes perfect a large work, like the universe. What nine months of attention does for an embryo forty early mornings will do for your gradually growing wholeness
Rumi
This is the essence of all sciences - that you should know who you will be when the Day of Reckoning arrives.
Rumi
Love possesses seven hundred wings, and each one extends from the highest heaven to the lowest earth.
Rumi
Whatever happens to you, don't fall in despair. Even if all the doors are closed, a secret path will be there for you that no one knows. You can't see it yet but so many paradises are at the end of this path...Be grateful! It is easy to thank after obtaining what you want, thank before having what you want.
Rumi
Open the window of your heart and let the Spirit speak
Rumi
In their seeking, wisdom and madness are one and the same. On the path of love, friend and stranger are one and the same.
Rumi
Is your face a beautiful blossom or a sweet torture? I have no complaints but my heart is tempted to let you hear of its sorrows.
Rumi
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.
Rumi
