Quote

Passion makes the old medicine new: Passion lops off the bough of weariness. Passion is the elixir that renews: how can there be weariness when passion is present? Oh, don't sigh heavily from fatigue: seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!

More quotes by Rumi

Image
Explanation by the tongue makes most things clear, But love unexplained is clearer.
Rumi
Image
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
Image
There is someone who looks after us from behind the curtain. In truth we are not here, this is our shadow.
Rumi
Image
If Light Is In Your Heart You Will Find Your Way Home.
Rumi
Image
We are the fingertips of blind illusion, You are the absolute Cause of causes.
Rumi
Image
The source is within you. And this whole world is springing up from it.
Rumi
Image
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
Rumi
Image
You lack a foot to travel? Then journey into yourself - that leads to transformation of dust into pure gold.
Rumi
Image
Take sips of this pure wine being poured. Don't mind that you've been given a dirty cup.
Rumi
Image
There cannot be self-restraint in the absence of desire: when there is no adversary, what avails thy courage? Hark, do not castrate thyself, do not become a monk: chastity depends on the existence of lust.
Rumi
Image
Be like a river in generosity and giving help. Be like a sun in tenderness and pity. Be like night when covering other's faults. Be like a dead when furious and angry. Be like earth in modesty and humbleness. Be like a sea in tolerance. Be as you are or as you look like.
Rumi
Image
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
Image
I am in Love with Love and Love is in love with me.
Rumi
Image
Beauty is the garden scent of roses, murmuring water flowing gently...Can words describe the indescribable?
Rumi
Image
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say. I don't plan it. When I'm outside the saying of it, I get very quiet and rarely speak at all.
Rumi
Image
The satiated person and the hungry one do not see the same thing when they look upon a loaf of bread.
Rumi
Image
God picks up the reed-flute world and blows. Each note is a need coming through one of us, a passion, a longing pain. Remember the lips where the wind-breath originated, and let your note be clear. Don't try to end it. Be your note.
Rumi
Image
If these poems repeat themselves, then so does Spring.
Rumi
Image
I seem restless, but am deeply at ease. Branches tremble the roots are still.
Rumi
Image
Daylight, full of small dancing particles. Can you see them when I whisper in your ear?
Rumi
