More quotes by Rumi
This discipline and rough treatment are a furnace to extract the silver from the dross. This testing purifies the gold by boiling the scum away.
Rumi
Last night you left me and slept your own deep sleep. Tonight you turn and turn. I say, 'You and I will be together till the Universe dissolves.' You mumble back things you thought of when you were drunk.
Rumi
The day you were born, a ladder was set up to help you escape this world.
Rumi
Would you become a pilgrim on the road of love? The first condition is that you make yourself humble as dust and ashes.
Rumi
Wisdom is like the rain. Its source is limitless, but it comes down according to the season.
Rumi
When lovers of life get ready to dance, the earth shakes and the sky trembles.
Rumi
The gates made of light swing open. You see in.
Rumi
While the mind sees only boundaries, Love knows the secret way there.
Rumi
Since Love has made ruins of my heart The sun must come and illumine them. Such generosity has broken me with shame.
Rumi
In Silence there is eloquence.
Rumi
Dance until you shatter yourself.
Rumi
If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?
Rumi
Pure souls, didn’t I tell you not to be seduced by this colorful world for I am the Ultimate Painter.
Rumi
This is a gathering of Lovers. In this gathering there is no high, no low, no smart, no ignorant, no special assembly, no grand discourse, no proper schooling required. There is no master, no disciple. This gathering is more like a drunken party, full of tricksters, fools, mad men and mad women. This is a gathering of Lovers.
Rumi
Prayer clears the mist and brings back peace to the Soul . . .
Rumi
If you do not possess the staff of caution and discrimination, use the eyes of him who sees. If there is no staff of caution and discrimination, do not wander on the road without a guide.
Rumi
Stay in the spiritual fire. Let it cook you.
Rumi
Dance, and make joyous the love around you. Dance, and your veils which hide the Light shall swirl in a heap at your feet.
Rumi
Last night my teacher taught me the lesson of Poverty: Having nothing and wanting nothing.
Rumi
The waterwheel accepts water and turns and gives it away, weeping.
Rumi
