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

More quotes by Rumi
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say. I don't plan it. When I'm outside the saying of it, I get very quiet and rarely speak at all.
Rumi
What I had thought of before as God, I met today in a human being.
Rumi
Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.
Rumi
On a day when the wind is perfect, the sail just needs to open and the world is full of beauty. Today is such a day.
Rumi
Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames
Rumi
Stay in the spiritual fire. Let it cook you.
Rumi
If thou wilt be observant and vigilant, thou wilt see at every moment the response to thy action. Be observant if thou wouldst have a pure heart, for something is born to thee in consequence of every action.
Rumi
Your hand opens and closes, opens and closes. If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralysed. Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as birds' wings.
Rumi
Anyone who knows me, should learn to know me again For I am like the Moon, you will see me with new face everyday.
Rumi
Darkness may hide the trees and the flowers from the eyes but it cannot hide love from the soul.
Rumi
To wander in the fields of flowers, pull the thorns from your heart.
Rumi
There is some kiss we want with the whole of our lives.
Rumi
Remember, the entrance door to the sanctuary is inside you.
Rumi
If I Separated Myself From You . . . I Would Turn Entirely Thorn!
Rumi
Keep walking, though there's no place to get to. Don't try to see through the distances. That's not for human beings. Move within, But don't move the way fear makes you move.
Rumi
I will be waiting here.... For your silence to break, For your soul to shake, For your love to wake!
Rumi
Conventional opinion is the ruin of our souls.
Rumi
Doubt is a precipice on the way to God. Blessed is he who is freed from its bonds. He who fares without any doubt, adhere to his footprints if you do not know the way. Cleave to the footprints of the deer and advance with care that you may reach the musk-gland. By means of such trekking, even if you walk on fire, you will reach the luminous peak.
Rumi
Never lose hope, my heart, miracles dwell in the invisible. If the whole world turns against you keep your eyes on the Friend.
Rumi
Be like a river in generosity and giving help. Be like a sun in tenderness and pity. Be like night when covering other's faults. Be like a dead when furious and angry. Be like earth in modesty and humbleness. Be like a sea in tolerance. Be as you are or as you look like.
Rumi
