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
Those doing soul work, who want the searing truth more than solace or applause, know each other right away. Those who want something else turn and take a seat in another room. Soul-makers find each other’s company.
Rumi
Love is from the infinite, and will remain until eternity.
Rumi
I came to this earth so that I could find my way back to my Beloved.
Rumi
Now I am sober and there's only the hangover and the memory of love.
Rumi
This whole universe is but a drop of His Beauty!
Rumi
If you knew the secret of life, you too would choose no other companion but love.
Rumi
Poems reach up like spindrift and the edge of driftwood along the beach, wanting! They derive from a slow and powerful root that we can’t see. Stop the words now. Open the window in the center of your chest, and let the spirits fly in and out.
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
What hurts the soul? To live without tasting the water of its own essence.
Rumi
Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.
Rumi
Be melting snow. Wash yourself of yourself.
Rumi
There is an original inside me.
Rumi
Every moment is made glorious by the light of love.
Rumi
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky
Rumi
I seem restless, but am deeply at ease. Branches tremble the roots are still.
Rumi
The meaning of poetry has no sureness of direction is like the sling, it is not under control.
Rumi
Hear from the heart wordless mysteries.
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
Be a spot of ground where nothing is growing, where something might be planted, a seed, possibly, from the Absolute.
Rumi
Never lose hope when the beloved sends you away. If you're abandoned if you're left hopeless tomorrow for sure you'll be called again. If the door is shut right in your face keep waiting with patience don't leave right away. Seeing your patience your love will soon summon you with grace raise you like a champion.
Rumi
