More quotes by Rumi
How far is the light of the moon from the moon? How far is the taste of candy from the lip?
Rumi
Why are you so enchanted by this world, when a mine of gold lies within you?
Rumi
Give yourself completely to the one you call God. If you are not doing it you are wasting your time here.
Rumi
I am a drunkard from another kind of tavern. I dance to a silent tune. I am the symphony of stars.
Rumi
Not only the thirsty seek the water, the water as well seeks the thirsty.
Rumi
Don't dismiss the heart, even if it's filled with sorrow. God's treasures are buried in broken hearts.
Rumi
I’ve been looking for a long, long time, for this thing called love, I’ve ridden comets across the sky, and I’ve looked below and above. Then one day I looked inside myself, and this is what I found, A golden sun residing there, beaming forth God’s light and sound.
Rumi
Lightning, your presence from ground to sky, no one knows what becomes of me, when you take me so quickly.
Rumi
Pale sunlight, pale the wall. Love moves away. The light changes I need more grace than I thought.
Rumi
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.
Rumi
Beyond what we wish and what we fear may happen we have another life, as clear and free as a mountain stream.
Rumi
Love is a tree and lovers are its shade.
Rumi
I said to the night, If you are in love with the moon, it is because you never stay for long. The night turned to me and said, It is not my fault. I never see the Sun, how can I know that love is endless?
Rumi
Stay with friends who support you in these. Talk with them about sacred texts, and how you are doing, and how they are doing, and keep your practices together.
Rumi
Make peace with the universe. Take joy in it. It will turn to gold. Resurrection will be now. Every moment, a new beauty.
Rumi
Someone who goes with a half a loaf of bread to a small place that fits like a nest around him, someone who wants no more, who is not himself longed for by anyone else. He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.
Rumi
Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.
Rumi
Each moment contains a hundred messages from God.
Rumi
Why am I seeking? I am the same as he. His essence speaks through me. I have been looking for myself
Rumi
Love risks everything and asks for nothing.
Rumi
