More quotes by Rumi
Remember. The way you make love is the way God will be with you.
Rumi
I seem restless, but am deeply at ease. Branches tremble the roots are still.
Rumi
If I Separated Myself From You . . . I Would Turn Entirely Thorn!
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
And watch two men washing clothes, one makes dry clothes wet. The other makes wet clothes dry. they seem to be thwarting each other, but their work is a perfect harmony. Every holy person seems to have a different doctrine and practice, but there's really only one work.
Rumi
What comes, will go. What is found, will be lost again. But what you are is beyond coming and going and beyond description.
Rumi
In Winter the bare boughs that seem to sleep Work covertly, preparing for their Spring.

Your heart mirrors not His love, Rusty with your sins it is, Remove this rust and you shall Perceive how Glorious He is.
Rumi
I know you're tired but come, this is the way.
Rumi
Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.

Rumi
If these poems repeat themselves, then so does Spring.
Rumi
Study me as much as you like, you will not know me, for I differ in a hundred ways from what you see me to be. Put yourself behind my eyes and see me as I see myself, for I have chosen to dwell in a place you cannot see.
Rumi
I want your sun to reach my raindrops, so your heat can raise my soul upward like a cloud.
Rumi
Your worst enemy is hiding within yourself, and that enemy is your nafs or false ego.
Rumi
