Intellect in its effort to explain Love got stuck in the mud like an ass. Love alone could explain love and loving.

More quotes by Rumi
If you are seeking, seek us with joy For we live in the kingdom of joy. Do not give your heart to anything else But to the love of those who are clear joy, Do not stray into the neighborhood of despair. For there are hopes: they are real, they exist – Do not go in the direction of darkness – I tell you: suns exist.
Rumi
Gratitude is the wine for the soul. Go on. Get drunk.
Rumi
Half-heartedne ss doesn't reach into majesty.
Rumi
In the orchard and rose garden I long to see your face. In the taste of Sweetness I long to kiss your lips. In the shadows of passion I long for your love.

Rumi
Keep silence, be mute. If you have not yet become the tongue of GOD, be an ear!
Rumi
Whenever Beauty looks, Love is also there Whenever beauty shows a rosy cheek Love lights Her fire from that flame. When beauty dwells in the dark folds of night Love comes and finds a heart entangled in tresses. Beauty and Love are as body and soul. Beauty is the mine, Love is the diamond.
Rumi
Listen . Keep silent . You are not gods mouthpiece. Try to be an ear.

Why am I seeking? I am the same as he. His essence speaks through me. I have been looking for myself
Rumi
Nothing I say can explain to you Divine Love Yet all of creation cannot seem to stop talking about it.
Rumi
This is how I would die into the love I have for you: As pieces of cloud dissolve in sunlight.
Rumi
LOVE comes of its own free will, it can't be learned in any school!
Rumi
Pour out wine till I become a wanderer from myself for in selfhood and existence I have felt only fatigue.
Rumi
Know that the outward form passes away, but the world of reality remains forever. How long will you play at loving the shape of the jug? Leave the jug go, seek the water!
Rumi
