More quotes by Rumi
Sometimes you hear a voice through the door calling you... This turning toward what you deeply love saves you.
Rumi
Love has come to rule and transform Stay awake, my heart, stay awake.
Rumi
The Soul is a stranger trying to find a Home somewhere that is not a where.
Rumi
God picks up the reed-flute world and blows. Each note is a need coming through one of us, a passion, a longing pain. Remember the lips where the wind-breath originated, and let your note be clear. Don't try to end it. Be your note.
Rumi
Indeed envy is a defect worse than any other.
Rumi
Daylight, full of small dancing particles. Can you see them when I whisper in your ear?
Rumi
In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.
Rumi
Even when you tear its petals off one after another, the rose keeps laughing and doesn’t bend in pain. “Why should I be afflicted because of a thorn? It is the thorn which taught me how to laugh.” Whatever you lost through fate, be certain that it saved you from pain.
Rumi
Let the Beloved be a hat pulled down firmly on my head.
Rumi
Innumerable changes of moods are yours, and they are uncontrolled by you. If you knew their origin, you would be able to dominate them. If you cannot localize your own changes, how can you localize that which formed you?
Rumi
Inside you there’s an artist you don’t know about… say yes quickly, if you know, if you’ve known it from before the beginning of the universe.
Rumi
Awe is the salve that will heal our eyes.
Rumi
Bitter your acts, bitter am I, Kindness your deeds, kindness am I, Pleasant and gentle, so you are, Fine honeyed lips and sweet talker.
Rumi
There is something to be said for anyone who sits alone with dignity and silently begs for God.
Rumi
Love risks everything and asks for nothing.
Rumi
When you are dead, seek for your resting place not in the earth, but in the hearts of men.
Rumi
Nothing can nourish the soul but LIGHT. Rid yourself of material needs and be set FREE.
Rumi
Love is the sea where intellect drowns.
Rumi
Birdsong brings relief to my longing. I am just as ecstatic as they are, but with nothing to say.
Rumi
If in thirst you drink water from a cup, you see God in it. Those who are not in love with God will see only their own faces in it.
Rumi
