This mirror inside me shows. I can’t say what, but I can’t not know. I run from body. I run from spirit. I do not belong anywhere.
Rumi
Your depression is connected to your insolence and refusal to praise.
Rumi
Work in the invisible world at least as hard as you do in the visible.
Rumi
Don't stray from your Heart's intent.

Rumi
Journey from the self to the Self and find the mine of gold. Leave behind what is sour and bitter and move toward the sweet.
Rumi
Angels dance only with You, Beloved and only before You do I bow in adoration. You may accept me or not but I will be at your feet forever.
Rumi
That's how you came here, like a star without a name. Move across the night sky with those anonymous lights.

Death has nothing to do with going away.The sun sets The moon sets But they are not gone.
Rumi
Nightingales are put in cages because their songs give pleasure. Whoever heard of keeping a crow?
Rumi
Every need brings in what's needed. Pain bears its cure like a child.
Rumi
Weep like the waterwheel, that green herbs may spring up from the courtyard of your soul. If you wish for tears, have mercy on one who sheds tears if you wish mercy, show mercy to the weak.
Rumi
Counterfeiters exist because there is such a thing as real gold.
Rumi
Lovers don't meet in the end, they are in each other forever.
Rumi
Today I'm out wandering, turning my skull into a cup for others to drink wine from. In this town somewhere there sits a calm, intelligent man, who doesn't know what he's about to do!
Rumi
