More quotes by Rumi
True beauty is a ray that springs from the sacred depths of the soul.
Rumi
I am so close, I may look distant.
Rumi
Every bird will follow it's specie.
Rumi
The world's flattery and hypocrisy is a sweet morsel: eat less of it, for it is full of fire. Its fire is hidden while its taste is manifest, but its smoke becomes visible in the end.
Rumi
What strange beings we are! That sitting in hell at the bottom of the dark, we're afraid of our own immortality.
Rumi
I was a tiny bug. Now a mountain. I was left behind. Now honored at the head. You healed my wounded hunger and anger, and made me a poet who sings about joy.
Rumi
We are all the same ... all the same... longing to find our way back ... back to the One ... back to the Only One!
Rumi
Wherever you stand, be the soul of that place.
Rumi
When you go through a hard period, When everything seems to oppose you, ... When you feel you cannot even bear one more minute, NEVER GIVE UP! Because it is the time and place that the course will divert!
Rumi
If you are wholly perplexed and in straits, have patience, for patience is the key to joy.
Rumi
Your eyelashes will write on my heart the poem that could never come from the pen of a poet.
Rumi
Actually, your soul and mine are the same. We appear and disappear with each other.
Rumi
Sorrows are the rags of old clothes and jackets that serve to cover, and then are taken off. That undressing, and the beautiful naked body underneath, is the sweetness that comes after grief.
Rumi
The work of magic is this, that it breathes and at every breath transforms realities.
Rumi
Every rose that is sweet-scented within, That rose is telling of the secrets of the Universal.
Rumi
The spirit and the body carry different loads and require different attentions. Too often we put the saddlebags on Jesus and let the donkey run loose in the pasture.
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
If these poems repeat themselves, then so does Spring.
Rumi
In Silence there is eloquence. Stop weaving and see how the pattern improves.
Rumi
Within tears, find hidden laughter Seek treasures amid ruins, sincere one.
Rumi
