What shall I say, O Muslims, I know not myself, I am neither a Christian, nor a Jew, nor a Zoroastrian, nor a Muslim.
Rumi
The sky will bow down to your beauty, if you do.
Rumi
Even when you tear its petals off one after another, the rose keeps laughing and doesn’t bend in pain. “Why should I be afflicted because of a thorn? It is the thorn which taught me how to laugh.” Whatever you lost through fate, be certain that it saved you from pain.
Rumi
If you are wholly perplexed and in straits, have patience, for patience is the key to joy.
Rumi
If your knowledge of fire has been turned to certainty by words alone, then seek to be cooked by the fire itself. Don't abide in borrowed certainty. There is no real certainty until you burn if you wish for this, sit down in the fire.
Rumi
There are many languages in the world in meaning all are the same. If you break the cups, water will be unified and will flow together.
Rumi
God picks up the reed-flute world and blows. Each note is a need coming through one of us, a passion, a longing pain. Remember the lips where the wind-breath originated, and let your note be clear. Don't try to end it. Be your note.
Rumi
When I am silent, I have thunder hidden inside.
Rumi
This world's existence is one night long. There's a great lively gathering that night, but some people sleep through it.
Rumi
Dive today from the cliff of what you know into what you can't know.
Rumi
If the Beautiful One is not inside you, then what is that Light hidden under your cloak?
Rumi
Clean out your ears, don't listen for what you already know.
Rumi
If thou has not seen the devil, look at thine own self.
Rumi
Ways of worshipping are not to be ranked as better or worse than one another . . . It's all praise, and it's all right.
Rumi
I honor those who try to rid themselves of any lying, who empty the self and have only clear being there.
Rumi
There goes a river dragging an ocean behind it.
Rumi
Oh, wandering One, if you are in search of the greatest treasure, don't look outside. Look within, and seek That.
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
If words come out of the heart, they will enter the heart.
Rumi
The world is a mirror, an imaging of Love's perfection.
Rumi
