Like the birds of the sea, men come from the ocean-the ocean of the soul. How could this bird, born from that sea, make his dwelling here?

More quotes by Rumi
When water gets caught in habitual whirlpools, dig a way out through the bottom of the ocean.
Rumi
Actually, your soul and mine are the same. We appear and disappear with each other.
Rumi
Love is such a vast sea, it has neither edges nor ends nor corners.
Rumi
My sight My heart My Life All three words I have woven into one ... Love.
Rumi
That hurt we embrace becomes joy. Call it to your arms where it can change.
Rumi
If my head holds one thought wise and clear, it's You. Poor as I am, what I hold dear is You. No matter how I see myself, I'm nothing ... Anything I am entirely is You!
Rumi
Know then that the body is merely a garment. Go seek the wearer, not the cloak.
Rumi
Never lose hope when the beloved sends you away. If you're abandoned if you're left hopeless tomorrow for sure you'll be called again. If the door is shut right in your face keep waiting with patience don't leave right away. Seeing your patience your love will soon summon you with grace raise you like a champion.
Rumi
When you find yourself with the Beloved, embracing for one breath, in that moment you will find your true destiny. Alas, don't spoil this precious moment. Moments like this are very, very rare.
Rumi
But listen to me. For one moment quit being sad. Hear blessings dropping their blossoms around you.
Rumi
No One in the Entire World is as Precious as You are.
Rumi
When there's no sign of hope in the desert, so much hope still lives inside despair. Heart, don't kill that hope.
Rumi
All the world Loves You, but You are nowhere to be found, Hidden and yet . . . completely obvious!
Rumi
Whoever's calm and sensible is insane!
Rumi
And patience flees my heart, And reason flees my mind. Oh, how drunk can I get to be, Without your love's security?
Rumi
Stars burn clear all night till dawn. Do that yourself, and a spring will rise in the dark with water your deepest thirst is for.
Rumi
All loves are a bridge to Divine love. Yet, those who have not had a taste of it do not know!
Rumi
Lo, for I to myself am unknown, now in God's name what must I do?
Rumi
If reason dominates in man, he rises higher than angels. If lust overpowers man, he descends lower than the beast.
Rumi
The way to heaven is within. Shake the wings of love-when love's wings have become strong, there is no need to trouble about a ladder.
Rumi
