More quotes by Rumi
Passion makes the old medicine new: Passion lops off the bough of weariness. Passion is the elixir that renews: how can there be weariness when passion is present? Oh, don't sigh heavily from fatigue: seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!
Rumi
People of the world don't look at themselves, and so they blame one another.
Rumi
Love is the reality, and poetry is the drum.
Rumi
The heart is the secret inside the secret.
Rumi
Maybe you are searching among the branches, for what only appears in the roots.
Rumi
Live in the nowhere that you come from even though you have got an address Here.
Rumi
Lo, for I to myself am unknown, now in God's name what must I do?
Rumi
Since you are not a prophet, follow the way taught by prophets. Since you are not a king, be a loyal subject to The King. Since you are not a captain, do not take the helm of the ship. Since you do not possess every skill, have partners in your business. Be as pliant as dough in the hands of others, that you may rise well.
Rumi
But learn this custom from the flower: silence your tongue.
Rumi
Your legs will get heavy and tired. Then comes a moment of feeling the wings you've grown, lifting.
Rumi
The sun comes back every day with new and powerful secrets.
Rumi
Your name is upon my tongue your image is in my sight your memory is in my heart where can I send these words that I write ?
Rumi
There is no Love greater than Love with no object. For then you, yourself, have become love, itself.
Rumi
You are the soul of the soul of the universe, and your name is Love.
Rumi
Dance where you can break yourself up to pieces and totally abandon your worldly passions.
Rumi
I am in Love with Love and Love is in love with me. My body is in Love with the soul and the soul is in Love with my body. I opened my arms to Love and Love embraced me like a lover.
Rumi
Love risks everything and asks for nothing.
Rumi
In his mind she lay at his lap with his fingers gliding thru her straight beautiful hair. He smiles and says your beauty lights up everything around you.
Rumi
Let a thousand wrangling desires become one Love.
Rumi
Longing is the core of mystery. Longing itself brings the cure. The only rule is, suffer the pain. Your desires must be disciplined And what you want to happen in time, sacrificed.
Rumi
