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. – Rumi

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

Even when tied in a thousand knots, the string is still but one. – Rumi

If you could untie your wings and free your soul of jealousy, you and everyone around you would fly up like doves. – Rumi
