Rumi

"Remember. The way you make love is the way God will be with you."

"Be a lamp, or a lifeboat, or a ladder. Help someone's soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd."

"Ignore those that make you fearful and sad, that degrade you back towards disease and death."

"در غم ما روزها بی گاه شدروزها با سوزها همراه شد"

"The breezes at dawn have secrets to tell youDon't go back to sleep!You must ask for what you really want.Don't go back to sleep!People are going back and forth across the doorsill where the two worlds touch,The door is round and openDon't go back to sleep!"

"I know you're tired but come, this is the way."

"Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words."

"When I am with you, we stay up all night.When you're not here, I can't go to sleep.Praise God for those two insomnias!And the difference between them."

"Grief can be the garden of compassion. If you keep your heart open through everything, your pain can become your greatest ally in your life's search for love and wisdom."

"This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet."

"Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you."

"I will soothe you and heal you,I will bring you roses.I too have been covered with thorns."

"Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with heart and soul there is no such thing as separation."

"The way you make love is the way God will be with you."

"I know you're tired but come, this is the way."

"Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field.I'll meet you there.When the soul lies down in that grassthe world is too full to talk about."

"You dance inside my chest,where no one sees you,but sometimes I do, and thatsight becomes this art."

"In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art."

"This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet."

"I am your moon and your moonlight tooI am your flower garden and your water tooI have come all this way, eager for youWithout shoes or shawlI want you to laughTo kill all your worriesTo love youTo nourish you."
