More quotes by Rumi
To me nothing in the world is as precious as a genuine smile, especially from a child.
Rumi
Why are you knocking at every door ? Go, knock at the door of your own heart.
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

Rumi
You have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly.
Rumi

Rumi
I want a trouble-maker for a lover, Blood spiller, blood drinker, a heart of flame, Who quarrels with the sky and fights with fate, Who burns like fire on the rushing sea.
Rumi
When someone mentions the gracefulness of the night sky, climb up on the roof and dance and say, like this?
Rumi
You are not one you are a Thousand. Just Light your Lantern.
Rumi
Nothing I say can explain to you Divine Love Yet all of creation cannot seem to stop talking about it.
Rumi
Don't try to steer the boat. Don't open shop for yourself. Listen. Keep silent. You are not God's mouthpiece. Try to be an ear, And if you do speak, ask for explanations.
Rumi
Cease looking for flowers! There blooms a garden in your own home. While you look for trinkets The treasure house awaits you in your own being.
Rumi
Why struggle to open a door between us when the whole wall is an illusion?
Rumi
Nothing can nourish the soul but LIGHT. Rid yourself of material needs and be set FREE.
Rumi
The Eternal looked upon me for a moment with His eye of power, and annihilated me in His being, and become manifest to me in His essence. I saw I existed through Him.
Rumi
Be occupied, then, with what you really value and let the thief take something else.
Rumi
Pull the thorn of existence out of the heart! Fast! For when you do, you will see thousands of rose gardens in yourself.
Rumi
