Rumi

Rumi
This is a gathering of Lovers. In this gathering there is no high, no low, no smart, no ignorant, no special assembly, no grand discourse, no proper schooling required. There is no master, no disciple. This gathering is more like a drunken party, full of tricksters, fools, mad men and mad women. This is a gathering of Lovers.
Rumi
Why should I be unhappy? Each parcel of my being is in full bloom.
Rumi
Stop searching here and there, the jewels are inside YOU.
Rumi
Regard a king as someone unconcerned with kingship.
Rumi
Whenever we manage to love without expectations, calculations, negotiations, we are indeed in heaven.
Rumi
