More quotes by Rumi
When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
Love is a tree and lovers are its shade.
Rumi
There's a hidden sweetness in the stomach's emptiness. We are lutes, no more, no less. If the soundbox is stuffed full of anything, no music.... When you're full of food and drink, Satan sits where your spirit should.
Rumi
You are the Soul and the medicine for what wounds the Soul.
Rumi
I am a bird of God's garden and I do not belong to this dusty world For a day or two they have put me here in this cage of my own body I did not come here of my own I will not return of my own to my own country.
Rumi
Beyond what we wish and what we fear may happen we have another life, as clear and free as a mountain stream.
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
Criticism polishes my mirror.
Rumi
Why struggle to open a door between us when the whole wall is an illusion?
Rumi
Let people catch something from your heart that will cause no discomfort, but help them to sing.
Rumi
The day is conscious of itself.
Rumi
Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious.
Rumi
There is a window between heart and heart: They are never separate like two bodies. Two lamps may not be united in their form - But their light merges into each other.
Rumi
Be suspicious of what you want.
Rumi
The gifts of lovers to one another are, in respect to love, nothing but forms yet, they testify to invisible love.
Rumi
Play the flute of felicity! You, yourself, are the melody.
Rumi
Even when tied in a thousand knots, the string is still but one.
Rumi
I have been so naughted in Thy Love's existence that my nonexistence is a thousand times sweeter than my existence
Rumi
When you eventually see through the veils to how things really are, you will keep saying again and again, this is certainly not like we thought it was.
Rumi
Be a lamp, or a lifeboat, or a ladder. Help someone's soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd.
Rumi
