Daylight, full of small dancing particles and the one great turning, our souls are dancing with you, without feet, they dance. Can you see them when I whisper in your ear? – Rumi, as interpreted by Coleman Barks

Gamble everything for love, if you’re a true human being. If not, leave this gathering. – Rumi

Don’t knock on any random door like a beggar. Reach your long hand out to another door, beyond where you go on the street, the street where everyone says, “How are you?” and no one says How aren’t you? – Rumi

Love’s secret is always lifting its head out from under the covers, Here I am! – Rumi, as interpreted by Coleman Barks
