Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“I was dead, then alive.
Weeping, then laughing.

The power of love came into me,
and I became fierce like a lion,
then tender like the evening star.”
Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Do you know what you are?
You are a manuscript oƒ a divine letter.
You are a mirror reflecting a noble face.
This universe is not outside of you.
Look inside yourself;
everything that you want,
you are already that.”
Rumi, Hush, Don't Say Anything to God: Passionate Poems of Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“At night, I open the window
and ask the moon to come
and press its face against mine.
Breathe into me.
Close the language-door
and open the love-window.
The moon won't use the door,
only the window.”
Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi, A Year with Rumi: Daily Readings

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.”
Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Sorrow prepares you for joy. It violently sweeps everything out of your house, so that new joy can find space to enter. It shakes the yellow leaves from the bough of your heart, so that fresh, green leaves can grow in their place. It pulls up the rotten roots, so that new roots hidden beneath have room to grow. Whatever sorrow shakes from your heart, far better things will take their place.”
Rumi
