Love is a madman, working his wild schemes, tearing off his clothes, running through the mountains...
RumiAt every moment, Love's voice talks to us from left and from right. All we have to do is to know how to listen.
RumiStars burn clear all night till dawn. Do that yourself, and a spring will rise in the dark with water your deepest thirst is for.
RumiSilence is the sea, and speech is like the river. The sea is seeking you: don't seek the river. Don't turn your head away from the signs offered by the sea.
RumiLove Is the Treasure The temple of love is not love itself; True love is the treasure, Not the walls about it. Do not admire the decoration, But involve yourself in the essence, The perfume that invades and touches you- The beginning and the end. Discovered, this replaces all else, The apparent and the unknowable. Time and space are slaves to this presence.
Rumi
