"There is a path from me to..." - Quote by Rumi

“Without the frown of clouds and lightning, the vines would be burned by the smiling sun.”

“Be like a tree and let the dead leaves drop.”

“What does this patch-sewing mean you ask? Eating and drinking. The heavy cloak of the body is always getting torn. You patch it with food and other ego-satisfactions.”

“The music does bring us together and it's cheaper than therapy!”

“Beneath the skin, beyond the differing features and into the true heart of being, fundamentally, we are more alike, my friend, than we are unalike.”

“Happiness is the only thing that multiplies when you share it.”

“You know what I am going to say. I love you. What other men may mean when they use that expression, I cannot tell. What I mean is that I am under the influence of some tremendous attraction which I have resisted in vain, and which overmasters me. You could draw me to fire, you could draw me to water, you could draw me to the gallows, you could draw me to any death, you could draw me to anything I have most avoided, you could draw me to any exposure and disgrace. This and the confusion of my thoughts, so that I am fit for nothing, is what I mean by your being the ruin of me.”

“I want to have thoughts of abundance. I want to have thoughts of love, of kindness, of beauty.”

“Lovers should guard their strangeness. If they forgive too much, all slides into confusion and meanness.”
