Everything that is made beautiful and fair and lovely is made for the eye of one who sees.
Be a lamp, a lifeboat, a ladder. Help someone’s soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd.
The pains you feel are messengers. Listen to them.
The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.
We carry inside us the wonders we seek outside us.
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I’ll meet you there.
Raise your words, not your voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.
If all you can do is crawl, start crawling.
Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.
You show your worth by what you seek! – Rumi
Beauty surrounds us, but usually we need to be walking in a garden to know it.
Everyone has been made for some particular work, and the desire for that work has been put in every heart.
Don’t grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.
Why should I be unhappy? Every parcel of my being is in full bloom.
Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.
The wound is the place where the light enters you.
Be like a tree and let the dead leaves drop.
The quieter you become, you more you are able to hear.
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
That which is false troubles the heart, but truth brings joyous tranquility.
When setting out on a journey, do not seek advice from those who have never left home.
