Rumi

There are a thousand ways to kneel and kiss the ground; there are a thousand ways to go home again.

It may be that the satisfaction I need depends on my going away, so that when I've gone and come back, I'll find it at home.

Beg of God the removal of envy, that God may deliver you from externals, and bestow upon you an inward occupation, which will absorb you so that your attention is not drawn away.

That which God said to the rose, and caused it to laugh in full-blown beauty, He said to my heart, and made it a hundred times more beautiful.

Woman is a ray of God. She is not that earthly beloved: she is creative, not created.

Plant the love of the holy ones within your spirit; don't give your heart to anything, but the love of those whose hearts are glad.

The gifts of lovers to one another are, in respect to love, nothing but forms; yet, they testify to invisible love.

However much I might try to expound or explain Love, when I come to Love itself, I am ashamed of my explanations... Love alone can explain the mysteries of love and lovers.

The moment I first heard love I gave up my soul, my heart, and my eyes.

Love will find its way through all languages on its own.
