More quotes by Rumi
When you are with everyone but me, you're with no one. When you are with no one but me, you're with everyone. Instead of being so bound up with everyone, be everyone. When you become that many, you're nothing. Empty.
Rumi
My soul is my guide, for my soul is of that abode. I will not speak of the earthly. I am of the unknown
Rumi
Not only the thirsty seek the water, the water as well seeks the thirsty.
Rumi
The satiated person and the hungry one do not see the same thing when they look upon a loaf of bread.
Rumi
Work on your stony qualities and become resplendent like the ruby. Practice self-denial and accept difficulty. Always see infinite life in letting the self die. Your stoniness will decrease your ruby nature will grow. The signs of self-existence will leave your body, and ecstasy will take you over.
Rumi
Be quiet now and wait. It may be that the ocean one, the one we desire so to move into and become, desires us out here on land a little longer, going our sundry roads to the shore.
Rumi
How can you ever hope to know the Beloved Without becoming in every cell the Lover?
Rumi
The Past, the Future, O dear, is from you you should regard both these as one.
Rumi
The radiant one in me has never said a word.
Rumi
In every religion there is love, yet love has no religion.
Rumi
Always check your inner state with the lord of your HEART.
Rumi
I saw many humans on whom there were no clothes. I saw many clothes in which there were no humans.
Rumi
You are the root of heaven, the morning star, the bright moon, the house of endless Love
Rumi
In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.
Rumi
When we practice loving kindness and compassion we are the first ones to profit.
Rumi
Look at these worlds spinning out of nothingness. That is within your power.
Rumi
O Beloved, where is the Beloved?
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
That's how you came here, like a star without a name. Move across the night sky with those anonymous lights.
Rumi
Dive today from the cliff of what you know into what you can't know.
Rumi
