More quotes by Rumi
From the Distance You only See My Light Come closer and You will Know that I Am You.
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
Knowledge that is acquired is not like this. Those who have it worry if audiences like it or not. It's a bait for popularity. Disputational knowing wants customers. It has no soul... The only real customer is God. Chew quietly your sweet sugarcane God-Love, and stay playfully childish.
Rumi
Know the true definition of yourself. That is essential. Then, when you know your own definition, flee from it.
Rumi
Love's nationality is separate from all other religions, The lover's religion and nationality is the Beloved (God). The lover's cause is separate from all other causes Love is the astrolabe of God's mysteries.
Rumi
O my choice beauty You've gone But your love remains in my heart Your image in my eye O guide on my winding road I keep turning round and round in the hopes of Finding you
Rumi
Tend to your vital heart, and all that you worry about will be solved.
Rumi
Pull the thorn of existence out of the heart! Fast! For when you do, you will see thousands of rose gardens in yourself.
Rumi
Poems reach up like spindrift and the edge of driftwood along the beach, wanting! They derive from a slow and powerful root that we can’t see. Stop the words now. Open the window in the center of your chest, and let the spirits fly in and out.
Rumi
Don't be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.
Rumi
This is how I would die into the love I have for you: As pieces of cloud dissolve in sunlight.
Rumi
Your defects are the ways that glory gets manifested ... That's where the Light enters you.
Rumi
Be silent, Only the Hand of God Can remove The burdens of your heart.
Rumi
Our death is our wedding with eternity.
Rumi
Carry the burden smilingly and cheerfully, because patience is the key to victory.
Rumi
What strikes the oyster shell doesn't damage the pearl.
Rumi
We are as the flute, and the music in us is from thee we are as the mountain and the echo in us is from thee.
Rumi
Friendship of the wise is good a wise enemy is better than a foolish friend.
Rumi
Don't look for me in a human shape, I am inside your looking.
Rumi
Silence is the sea, and speech is like the river. The sea is seeking you: don't seek the river. Don't turn your head away from the signs offered by the sea.
Rumi
