More quotes by Rumi
There is a candle in your heart, ready to be kindled.
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
Keep digging your well. Water is there somewhere.
Rumi
How will you know the difficulties of being human, if you are always flying off to blue perfection? Where will you plant your grief seeds? Workers need ground to scrape and hoe, not the sky of unspecified desire.
Rumi
A pen went scribbling along. When it tried to write love, it broke.
Rumi
Whosoever knoweth the power of the dance, dwelleth in God.
Rumi
I have been so naughted in Thy Love's existence that my nonexistence is a thousand times sweeter than my existence
Rumi
The pure heart is a spotless mirror in which images of infinite beauty are reflected.
Rumi
Last night I begged the Wise One to tell me the secret of the world. Gently, gently, he whispered, Be quiet, the secret cannot be spoken, It is wrapped in silence.
Rumi
Wash the dust from your SOUl and HEART with wisdom's WATER.
Rumi
You transform all those who are touched by You.
Rumi
If you love someone, you are always joined with them--in joy, in absence, in solitude, in strife.
Rumi
You're not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.
Rumi
Come out of the circle of time And into the circle of love.
Rumi
Some huge work goes on growing. How could one person´s words matter? Where you walk heads pop from the ground. What is one seed head compared to you? On my death day I´ll know the answer. I have cleared this house, so that your work can, when it comes, fill every room. I slide like an empty boat pulled over the water.
Rumi
Listen my love, illumination is eternal. Now is always evolving. As there are billions of stars, there are billions of steps. As there are billions of souls, there are billions of ways to grow.
Rumi
I am yours. Don't give myself back to me.
Rumi
Empathy is even better than talking in one language
Rumi
A lover in life will be a lover in death, a lover in the tomb, a lover in paradise, a lover on the day of resurrection.
Rumi
Sometimes you hear a voice through the door calling you... This turning toward what you deeply love saves you.
Rumi
