Oh Beloved, take me. Liberate my soul. Fill me with your love and release me from the two worlds. If I set my heart on anything but you let fire burn me from inside. Oh Beloved, take away what I want. Take away what I do. Take away what I need. Take away everything that takes me from you.

Ecstatic Love is an ocean, and the Milky Way is a flake of foam floating on it.

Trust means you're ready to risk what you currently have.

Let us carve gems out of our stony hearts and let them light our path to love.

There is a window from one heart to another heart.

If God said, 'Rumi pay homage to everything that has helped you enter my arms,' there would not be one experience of my life, not one thought, not one feeling, nor any act, I would not bow to.

Sit with lovers and choose their state. Do not stay long with those who are not living in the heart.
