More quotes by Rumi
It is Love and the Lover that live eternally - Don't lend your heart to anything else all else is borrowed.
Rumi
One of the marvels of the world: The sight of a soul sitting in prison with the key in its hand.
Rumi
Knowledge that is acquired is not like this. Those who have it worry if audiences like it or not. It's a bait for popularity. Disputational knowing wants customers. It has no soul... The only real customer is God. Chew quietly your sweet sugarcane God-Love, and stay playfully childish.
Rumi
You do not see clearly the evil in yourself, else you would hate yourself with all your soul. Like the lion who sprang at his image in the water, you are only hurting yourself, O foolish man. When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
Light the incense! You have to burn to be fragrant.
Rumi
Inside you there's an artist you don't know about.
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
Only from the heart can you touch the sky.
Rumi
God made the Illusion look Real and the Real an Illusion !
Rumi
To love is human. To feel pain is human. Yet to still love despite the pain is pure angel.
Rumi
Travel brings power and love back into your life.
Rumi
I am a child whose teacher is LOVE surely my master won't let me grow to be a fool.
Rumi
Look as long as you can at the friend you love, no matter whether that friend is moving away from you or coming back toward you.
Rumi
If the Beautiful One is not inside you, then what is that Light hidden under your cloak?
Rumi
In order to understand the dance one must be still. And in order to truly understand stillness one must dance.
Rumi
Every bird will follow it's specie.
Rumi
Feel the delight of walking in the noisy street and being the noise.
Rumi
The world is like a courtroom, with God as our judge. We are called upon to fulfill our covenant with God, who asked, Am I not your Lord? To which we answered, Yea. And since here on earth we are on trial, our every word and action form the witness to and the evidence of that agreement.
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
Everyone is overridden by thoughts that's why they have so much heartache and sorrow.
Rumi
