You’ve been walking the ocean’s edge, holding up your robes to keep them dry. You must dive naked under, and deeper under, a thousand times deeper! – Rumi

There is a way of breathing that’s a shame and a suffocation and there’s another way of expiring, a love breath, that lets you open infinitely. – Rumi

There is a fountain inside you. Don’t walk around with an empty bucket. – Rumi

Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment… – Rumi, translated by Edward Henry Whinfield
