More quotes by Rumi
The only way to measure a lover is by the grandeur of the beloved.
Rumi
There is a place where voices sing your beauty, A place where every breath carves your image in my soul.
Rumi
My heart rushes into the garden, joyfully tasting all the delights. But reason frowns, disapproving of the heart's bad manners.
Rumi
That which is false troubles the heart, but truth brings joyous tranquility.
Rumi
All day I think about it, then at night I say it. Where did I come from, and what am I supposed to be doing? I have no idea. My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there.
Rumi
There is a Soul within the Soul. Seek it out. There is a Treasure in your mountain. Seek it Out. A mystic in motion, if that's what you are, don't seek out there seek inside.
Rumi
Why, when God's world is so big, did you fall asleep in a prison, of all places?
Rumi
Like the birds of the sea, men come from the ocean-the ocean of the soul. How could this bird, born from that sea, make his dwelling here?
Rumi
Smiles come best from those who weep.
Rumi
Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.
Rumi
Lovers have heartaches That can't be cured by drugs Or sleep, Or games, But only by seeing their beloved.
Rumi
What you have despised in yourself as a thorn opens into a rose.
Rumi
This is enough was always true. We just haven't seen it.
Rumi
Pour out wine till I become a wanderer from myself for in selfhood and existence I have felt only fatigue.
Rumi
Kill the cow of your ego as quickly as you can, so that your inner spirit can come to life and attain true awareness.
Rumi
Though Destiny a hundred times waylays you,in the end it pitches a tent for you in Heaven. It is God's loving kindness to terrify you,in order to lead you to His Kingdom of safety.
Rumi
In this life many demolitions are actually renovations.
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
Each has to enter the nest made by the other imperfect bird.
Rumi
Be occupied, then, with what you really value and let the thief take something else.
Rumi
