More quotes by Rumi
Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious.
Rumi
If the wine drinker has a deep gentleness in him, he will show that when drunk. But if he has hidden anger and arrogance, those appear.
Rumi
I am a drunkard from another kind of tavern. I dance to a silent tune. I am the symphony of stars.
Rumi
Dive today from the cliff of what you know into what you can't know.
Rumi
There is a field beyond all notions of right and wrong. Come, meet me there.
Rumi
Don't put blankets over the drum! Open completely. Let your spirit ear listen to the green dome's passionate murmur.
Rumi
Love Came.... and became like blood in my body. It rushed through my veins and encircled my Heart. Everywhere I looked, I saw One Thing.... Love's Name written on my limbs, on my left palm, on my forehead, on the back of my neck, on my right big toe... Oh, my friend, all that you see of me is just a shell, and the rest belongs to Love.
Rumi
My sight My heart My Life All three words I have woven into one ... Love.
Rumi
When you are dead, seek for your resting place not in the earth, but in the hearts of men.
Rumi
That which is false troubles the heart, but truth brings joyous tranquility.
Rumi
What shall I say, O Muslims, I know not myself, I am neither a Christian, nor a Jew, nor a Zoroastrian, nor a Muslim.
Rumi
The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart
Rumi
Do you think I know what I'm doing? That for one breath or half-breath I belong to myself? As much as a pen knows what it's writing, or the ball can guess where it's going next.
Rumi
Since in order to speak, one must first listen, learn to speak by listening.
Rumi
Your defects are the ways that glory gets manifested ... That's where the Light enters you.
Rumi
I will soothe you and heal you, I will bring you roses. I too have been covered with thorns.
Rumi
Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought! Why do you stay in prison When the door is so wide open?
Rumi
When I run after what I think I want, my days are a furnace of stress and anxiety if I sit in my own place of patience, what I need flows to me, and without pain. From this I understand that what I want also wants me, is looking for me and attracting me. There is a great secret here for anyone who can grasp it.
Rumi
Never lose hope, my heart, miracles dwell in the invisible. If the whole world turns against you keep your eyes on the Friend.
Rumi
There is no Love greater than Love with no object. For then you, yourself, have become love, itself.
Rumi
