Additional quotes by Rumi

قد ينتهي طريق عند بيت واحد،

لكن ليس طريق العشق.

العشق نهر.

اشرب منه.

Would you become a pilgrim on the road of love? The first condition is that you make yourself humble as dust and ashes.

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.

I am not from east or west not up from the ground or out of the ocean my place is placeless a trace of the traceless I belong to the beloved - Rumi
