Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray.”
Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“The same wind that uproots trees
makes the grass shine.

The lordly wind loves the weakness
and the lowness of grasses.
Never brag of being strong.

The axe doesn't worry how thick the branches are.
It cuts them to pieces. But not the leaves.
It leaves the leaves alone.”
Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Moonlight floods the whole sky from horizon to horizon;
How much it can fill your room depends on its windows.”
Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“These pains you feel are messengers. Listen to them.”
Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Don't try to steer the boat.
Don't open shop for yourself. Listen. Keep silent.
You are not God's mouthpiece. Try to be an ear,
And if you do speak, ask for explanations.”
Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi, The Essential Rumi
