Additional quotes by Rumi

For years, copying other people, I tried to know myself.
From within, I couldn't decide what to do.
Unable to see, I heard my name being called.
Then I walked outside.

When the light returns to its source, it takes nothing of what it has illuminated.

Do not grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.

You dance inside my chest, where no one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art. - Rumi
