I made an oath to myself:
as long as I live
as long as my soul remains in this body
I won't deviate from the right way
but later I looked to my left and then to my right
and I saw our beloved everywhere
how could I make a wrong turn?

Additional quotes by Rumi

إننا نسأل الله التوفيق إلى الأدب، فمن لا أدب عنده صار محروما من لطف الرب.
وما أساء عديم الأدب إلى نفسه فحسب، بل أضرم النار فى كل الآفاق.
