More quotes by Rumi
Fling me across the fabric of time and the seas of space. Make me nothing and from nothing-everything.
Rumi
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.
Rumi
Love is not written on paper, for paper can be erased. Nor is it etched on stone, for stone can be broken. But it is inscribed on a heart and there it shall remain forever.
Rumi
Love Came.... and became like blood in my body. It rushed through my veins and encircled my Heart. Everywhere I looked, I saw One Thing.... Love's Name written on my limbs, on my left palm, on my forehead, on the back of my neck, on my right big toe... Oh, my friend, all that you see of me is just a shell, and the rest belongs to Love.
Rumi
I belong to no religion. My religion is love. Every heart is my temple.
Rumi
We are the mirror as well as the face in it. We are tasting the taste this minute of eternity. We are pain and what cures pain both. We are the sweet cold water and the jar that pours.
Rumi
If the wine drinker has a deep gentleness in him, he will show that when drunk. But if he has hidden anger and arrogance, those appear.
Rumi
Know then that the body is merely a garment. Go seek the wearer, not the cloak.
Rumi
Someone who does not run toward the allure of love walks a road where nothing lives. But this dove here senses the love hawk floating above, and waits, and will not be driven or scared to safety.
Rumi
He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.
Rumi
If in thirst you drink water from a cup, you see God in it. Those who are not in love with God will see only their own faces in it.
Rumi
He has afflicted you from every direction in order to pull you back to the directionless.
Rumi
I drank water from your spring and felt the current take me.
Rumi
In Winter the bare boughs that seem to sleep Work covertly, preparing for their Spring.
Rumi
Today I'm out wandering, turning my skull into a cup for others to drink wine from. In this town somewhere there sits a calm, intelligent man, who doesn't know what he's about to do!
Rumi
You are the fountain of the sun. I'm the shadow of a willow. You fall upon my forehead. I melt. You slip into my heart. It spills open. You surround me with such sweetness. I make it my home.
Rumi
The Heart of the matter is Soul, nothing else.
Rumi
Bitter your acts, bitter am I, Kindness your deeds, kindness am I, Pleasant and gentle, so you are, Fine honeyed lips and sweet talker.
Rumi
Our greatest strength lies in the gentleness and tenderness of our heart.
Rumi
I died as a mineral and became a plant, I died as a plant and rose to animal, I died as an animal and I was Man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
Rumi
