Hungry, you're a dog, angry and bad-natured. having eaten your fill, you become a carcass you lie down like a wall, senseless. At one time a dog, at another time a carcass, how will you run with lions, or follow the saints?

More quotes by Rumi
We are all bathed in the same light.
Rumi
This world is full of remedies. But you have no remedy until God opens a window for you. You may not be aware of that remedy just now. In the hour of need it will be made clear to you. The Prophet said God made a remedy for every pain.
Rumi
Each has to enter the nest made by the other imperfect bird.
Rumi
Behind every atom of this world hides an infinite Universe.
Rumi
Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.
Rumi
Lo, for I to myself am unknown, now in God's name what must I do?
Rumi
Everyone sees the unseen in proportion to the clarity of his heart, and that depends upon how much he has polished it. Whoever has polished it more sees more - more unseen forms become manifest to him.
Rumi
Everything about yesterday has gone with yesterday. Today, it is needed to say new things.
Rumi

Rumi
On this path let the heart be your guide.
Rumi
Silence is an ocean. Speech is a river. When the ocean is searching for you, don't walk into the language-river. Listen to the ocean, and bring your talky business to an end. Traditional words are just babbling in that presence, and babbling is a substitute for sight.
Rumi
Everyone is overridden by thoughts that's why they have so much heartache and sorrow.
Rumi
Fling me across the fabric of time and the seas of space. Make me nothing and from nothing-everything.
Rumi
If you # love love, look for yourself.
Rumi
To wander in the fields of flowers, pull the thorns from your heart.
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
A pure heart, open to the Light, will be filled with the elixir of Truth.
Rumi
You have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly.
Rumi
I belong to no religion. My religion is love. Every heart is my temple.
Rumi
The rose's rarest essence lives in the thorns.
Rumi
