More quotes by Rumi
Don't try to steer the boat. Don't open shop for yourself. Listen. Keep silent. You are not God's mouthpiece. Try to be an ear, And if you do speak, ask for explanations.
Rumi
Moonlight floods the whole sky from horizon to horizon How much it can fill your room depends on its windows.
Rumi
I am pure light, not just a fistful of clay. The shell is not me, I came as the royal pearl within. Look at me not with outward eye but with inward vision of the heart Follow me there and see how unencumbered we become.
Rumi
The branch might seem like the fruit's origin: In fact, the branch exist because of the fruit.
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
Love is an open secret, the most obvious thing in the world and the most hidden, with no why to how it keeps its mystery.
Rumi
Within tears, find hidden laughter Seek treasures amid ruins, sincere one.
Rumi
Since in order to speak, one must first listen, learn to speak by listening.
Rumi
Know the true definition of yourself. That is essential. Then, when you know your own definition, flee from it.
Rumi
Whoever travels without a guide, needs two hundred years for a two-day journey.
Rumi
When inward tenderness finds the secret hurt, pain itself will crack the rock and Ah! Let the soul emerge.
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
Your light is more magnificent than sunrise or sunset
Rumi
I see my beauty in you.
Rumi
Gamble everything for love, if you are a true human being. If not, leave this gathering. Half-heartedness doesn’t reach into majesty.
Rumi
Love is the reality, and poetry is the drum.
Rumi
if i can only recount the story of my life right out of my body flames will grow
Rumi
I should sell my tongue and buy a thousand ears when that One steps near and begins to speak.
Rumi
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
Rumi
Whoever is loved is beautiful, but the opposite is not true, that whoever is beautiful is loved.
Rumi
