More quotes by Rumi
Don't be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.
Rumi
Maybe you are searching among the branches, for what only appears in the roots.
Rumi
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say.
Rumi
But listen to me. For one moment quit being sad. Hear blessings dropping their blossoms around you.
Rumi
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.
Rumi
The undisciplined man doesn't wrong himself alone- he sets fire to the whole world.
Rumi
We can't help being thirsty, moving toward the voice of water. Milk drinkers draw close to the mother. Muslims, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, shamans, everyone hears the intelligent sound and moves with thirst to meet it.
Rumi
Everyone sees the unseen in proportion to the clarity of his hear.
Rumi
Every moment, the sunlight is totally empty and totally full.
Rumi
In this life many demolitions are actually renovations.
Rumi
You are the root of heaven, the morning star, the bright moon, the house of endless Love
Rumi
Brother, stand the pain. Escape the poison of your impulses. The sky will bow to your beauty, if you do. Learn to light the candle. Rise with the sun. Turn away from the cave of your sleeping. That way a thorn expands to a rose.
Rumi
Why should I be unhappy? Each parcel of my being is in full bloom.
Rumi
The world is a mirror, an imaging of Love's perfection.
Rumi
Lovers find secret places inside this violent world where they make transactions with beauty.
Rumi
Turning toward what you deeply love saves you
Rumi
You are a fountain of the sun's light. I am a willow shadow on the ground. You make my raggedness silky.
Rumi
Rise up nimbly and go on your strange journey to the ocean of meanings.... Leave and don't look away from the sun as you go, in whose light you're sometimes crescent, sometimes full.
Rumi
No mirror ever became iron again No bread ever became wheat No ripened grape ever became sour fruit. Mature yourself and be secure from a change for the worse. Become the light.
Rumi
Sometimes in order to help He makes us cry Happy the eye that sheds tears for His sake Fortunate the heart that burns for His sake Laughter always follow tears Blessed are those who understand Life blossoms wherever water flows Where tears are shed divine mercy is shown
Rumi
