More quotes by Rumi
The spirit is so near that you can't see it! But reach for it... don't be a jar, full of water, whose rim is always dry. Don't be the rider who gallops all night and never sees the horse that is beneath him.
Rumi
My place is the Placeless, my trace is the Traceless 'Tis neither body nor soul, for I belong to the soul of the Beloved. I have put duality away, I have seen that the two worlds are one One I seek, One I know, One I see, One I call.
Rumi
Let a thousand wrangling desires become one Love.
Rumi
He whose intellect overcomes his lust is higher than the angels he whose lust overcomes his intelligence is less than an animal.
Rumi
In the orchard and rose garden I long to see your face. In the taste of Sweetness I long to kiss your lips. In the shadows of passion I long for your love.
Rumi
Forget the future. I'd worship someone who could do that.
Rumi
The thirsty look for water, but water also looks for thirsty.

Rumi
Last night I learned how to be a lover of God. To live in this world and call nothing my own.
Rumi
I am an ark in the swift flood of time, and my companions, a fellowship. Who throws in with us sails into light.
Rumi
God made the Illusion look Real and the Real an Illusion !
Rumi
Let the beauty we love do what we do.
Rumi
I came to this earth so that I could find my way back to my Beloved.
Rumi
Every object, every being...is a jar full of delight.
Rumi
If in thirst you drink water from a cup, you see God in it. Those who are not in love with God will see only their own faces in it.
Rumi
Remember, the entrance door to the sanctuary is inside you.
Rumi
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say. I don't plan it. When I'm outside the saying of it, I get very quiet and rarely speak at all.
Rumi
people want you to be happy, don't keep serving them your pain
