More quotes by Rumi
The source is within you. And this whole world is springing up from it.
Rumi
Weep like the waterwheel, that green herbs may spring up from the courtyard of your soul. If you wish for tears, have mercy on one who sheds tears if you wish mercy, show mercy to the weak.
Rumi
The miracle of Jesus is himself, not what he said or did.
Rumi
We may know who we are or we may not. We may be Muslims, Jews or Christians but until our hearts become the mould for every heart we will see only our differences.
Rumi
I am part of the load not rightly balanced . . .
Rumi
Swim out of your little pond.
Rumi
Moonlight floods the whole sky from horizon to horizon How much it can fill your room depends on its windows.
Rumi
When you are dead, seek for your resting place not in the earth, but in the hearts of men.
Rumi
For those who realize that everything is from God, everything is the same.
Rumi
Thinking gives off smoke to prove the existence of fire. A mystic sits inside the burning. There are wonderful shapes in rising smoke that imagination loves to watch. But it's a mistake to leave the fire for that filmy sight. Stay here at the flame's core.
Rumi
Oh sky, without me, do not change, Oh moon, without me, do not shine Oh earth, without me, do not grow, Oh time, without me, do not go. ...Oh, you cannot go, without me.
Rumi
There is a candle in your heart, ready to be kindled.
Rumi
There comes a holy and transparent time when every touch of beauty opens the heart to tears. This is the time the Beloved of heaven is brought tenderly on earth. This is the time of the opening of the ROSE.
Rumi
You are the Soul and the medicine for what wounds the Soul.
Rumi
Not only the thirsty seek the water, the water as well seeks the thirsty.
Rumi
Our death is our wedding with eternity.
Rumi
I am in Love with Love and Love is in love with me.
Rumi
What draws friends together does not conform to the laws of nature.
Rumi
Nightingales are put in cages because their songs give pleasure. Whoever heard of keeping a crow?
Rumi
Walk patiently through this troubled world, and you will find great treasure. Even though your house may be small, look within it!
Rumi
