Flattery's fire is hidden. Its sweet taste is apparent, but the smoke is bound to come out at last.

More quotes by Rumi
Let yourself be loved, O Beloved, in the One. And from this One move out into the world, carrying within you the great potent energies of life to green your world, to create planets, suns, stars, stones, waves, oceans, to create new forms of life and expression - whether a friendship, a feeling or a new form of vocation.
Rumi
Beauty is the garden scent of roses, murmuring water flowing gently...Can words describe the indescribable?
Rumi
I came to this earth so that I could find my way back to my Beloved.
Rumi
I am neither of the East nor of the West, no boundaries exist within my breast.
Rumi
You live in my heart where no one sees you but I do. That vision becomes this art.
Rumi
Whatever you know, or don’t - only Love is real.
Rumi
Everything you see has its roots in the unseen world. The forms may change, yet the essence remains the same.
Rumi
The same wind that uproots trees makes the grass shine. The lordly wind loves the weakness and the lowness of grasses. Never brag of being strong. The axe doesn't worry how thick the branches are. It cuts them to pieces. But not the leaves. It leaves the leaves alone.
Rumi
Gratitude is the wine for the soul. Go on. Get drunk.
Rumi
There's no one with intelligence in this town except that man over there playing with the children, the one riding the stick horse. He has keen, fiery insight and vast dignity like the night sky, but he conceals it in the madness of child's play.
Rumi
In things spiritual, there is no partition, no number, no individuals. How sweet is the oneness-unearth the treasure of Unity.
Rumi
I saw grief drinking a cup of sorrow and called out, 'It tastes sweet, does it not?' 'You've caught me,' grief answered, 'and you've ruined my business. How can I sell sorrow, when you know it's a blessing?
Rumi
We are all bathed in the same light.
Rumi
The middle path is the way to wisdom
Rumi
You are the soul of the soul of the universe, and your name is Love.
Rumi
What comes, will go. What is found, will be lost again. But what you are is beyond coming and going and beyond description.
Rumi
The spirit and the body carry different loads and require different attentions. Too often we put the saddlebags on Jesus and let the donkey run loose in the pasture.
Rumi
Let go of your mind and then be mindful. Close your ears and listen!
Rumi
Stop looking for something out there and begin seeing within.
Rumi
Love is the vital core of the soul. And of all you see, only love is infinite.
Rumi
