Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“People want you to be happy.
Don't keep serving them your pain!

If you could untie your wings
and free your soul of jealousy,

you and everyone around you
would fly up like doves.”
Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Be empty of worrying.
Think of who created thought!

Why do you stay in prison
When the door is so wide open?”
Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.”
Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”
Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“A thousand half-loves must be forsaken to take one whole heart home.”
Rumi, Words of Paradise: Selected Poems of Rumi
