More quotes by Rumi
This phantom world gave you false signs But you turned from the illusion and journeyed to the land of truth.
Rumi
Behind every atom of this world hides an infinite Universe.
Rumi
Have you ever gotten breathless before from a beautiful face, for i see you there, my dear.
Rumi
Light the incense! You have to burn to be fragrant.
Rumi
On the way there is no harder pass than this: fortunate is he who does not carry envy as a companion.
Rumi
Why should I be weary when every cell of my body is bursting with life?
Rumi
On a day when the wind is perfect, the sail just needs to open and the world is full of beauty. Today is such a day.
Rumi
In the garden I see only your face From trees and blossoms I inhale only your fragrance.
Rumi
There cannot be self-restraint in the absence of desire: when there is no adversary, what avails thy courage? Hark, do not castrate thyself, do not become a monk: chastity depends on the existence of lust.
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
When you have indulged a lust, your wing drops off you become lame, abandoned by a fantasy. …People fancy they are enjoying themselves, but they are really tearing out their wings for the sake of an illusion.
Rumi
Those with open hearts always have open hands.
Rumi
The middle path is the way to wisdom
Rumi
Someone who goes with a half a loaf of bread to a small place that fits like a nest around him, someone who wants no more, who is not himself longed for by anyone else. He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.
Rumi
At every instant and from every side, resounds the call of Love: We are going to sky, who wants to come with us? We have gone to Heaven, we have been the friends of the angels, And now we will go back there, for there is our country.
Rumi
When inward tenderness finds the secret hurt, pain itself will crack the rock and Ah! Let the soul emerge.
Rumi
Either give me more wine or leave me alone.
Rumi
You rave about the Holy Place (Masjid al-Haram) and say you've visited God's garden but where is your bunch of flowers? There is some merit in the suffering you have endured but what a pity you have not discovered the Makkah thats inside
Rumi
There is a morning inside you waiting to burst open into light.
Rumi
Listen . Keep silent . You are not gods mouthpiece. Try to be an ear.
Rumi
