More quotes by Rumi
Do not grieve over any joy that has gone forever, for it will return to you in another form, know that for sure.
Rumi
Reason is like an officer when the king appears. The officer then loses his power and hides himself. Reason is the shadow cast by God God is the sun.
Rumi
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.
Rumi
Brother, stand the pain. Escape the poison of your impulses. The sky will bow to your beauty, if you do. Learn to light the candle. Rise with the sun. Turn away from the cave of your sleeping. That way a thorn expands to a rose.
Rumi
Clean out your ears, don't listen for what you already know.
Rumi
Love alone can explain the mysteries of Love.
Rumi
Love is from the infinite, and will remain until eternity. The seeker of love escapes the chains of birth and death. Tomorrow, when resurrection comes, The heart that is not in love will fail the test.
Rumi
Seek the sound that never ceases. Seek the sun that never sets.
Rumi
You could string a hundred endless days together, My soul would find no comfort from this pain. You laugh at my tale? You may be educated But you haven’t learned to love till you’re insane
Rumi
Where the lips are silent the heart has a thousand tongues.
Rumi
Those who practice Love have neither Religion or Status.
Rumi
Break your pitcher against a rock. We don't need any longer to haul pieces of the ocean around.
Rumi
Not only the thirsty seek the water, the water as well seeks the thirsty.
Rumi
I am so happy, I cannot be contained in the world But like a spirit, I am hidden from the eyes of the world.
Rumi
Actually, your soul and mine are the same. We appear and disappear with each other.
Rumi
Through love all that is bitter will be sweet.
Rumi
All religions, all this singing, one song. The differences are just illusion and vanity. The sun’s light looks a little different on this wall than it does on that wall, and a lot different on this other one, but it’s still one light.
Rumi
Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi or zen. Not any religion or cultural system. I am not of the East, nor of the West.... My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless.
Rumi
Grief can be the garden of compassion. If you keep your heart open through everything, your pain can become your greatest ally in your life's search for love and wisdom.
Rumi
Beyond the rightness or wrongness of things there is a field, I'll meet you there
Rumi
