More quotes by Rumi
If you could leave your selfishness, you would see how you've been torturing your soul.
Rumi
I am your own voice echoing off the walls of God
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
If the Beautiful One is not inside you, then what is that Light hidden under your cloak?
Rumi
There’s a morning when presence comes over your soul. You sing like a rooster in your earth-colored shape. Your heart hears and, no longer frantic, begins to dance.
Rumi
When I am with you, we stay up all night. When you're not here, I can't go to sleep. Praise God for those two insomnias! And the difference between them.
Rumi
You’re a song, a wished-for song.
Rumi
For me to praise is interrupting praise.
Rumi
Don't be the rider who gallops all nightand never sees the horse that is beneath him
Rumi
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.
Rumi
Don't allow your animal nature to rule your reason.
Rumi
Tonight the moon kisses the stars. O beloved,be like that to me!
Rumi
How should Spring bring forth a garden on hard stone? Become earth, that you may grow flowers of many colors. For you have been heart-breaking rock. Once, for the sake of experiment, be earth!
Rumi
I seem restless, but am deeply at ease. Branches tremble the roots are still.
Rumi
Those who don't feel this love pulling them like a river, those who don't drink dawn like a cup of springwater or take in sunset like a supper, those who don't want to change, let them sleep.
Rumi
By the mercy of Allah Paradise has eight doors one of those is the door of repentance, child. All the others are sometimes open, sometimes shut, but the door of repentance is never closed. Come seize the opportunity: the door is open carry your baggage there at once.
Rumi
Oh! joy for he who has escaped from this world of perfumes and color! For beyond these colors and these perfumes, these are other colors in the heart and the soul.
Rumi
Those doing soul work, who want the searing truth more than solace or applause, know each other right away. Those who want something else turn and take a seat in another room. Soul-makers find each other’s company.
Rumi
Oh sky, without me, do not change, Oh moon, without me, do not shine Oh earth, without me, do not grow, Oh time, without me, do not go. ...Oh, you cannot go, without me.
Rumi
When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.
Rumi
