Rumi Quotes to Ponder

Rumi was a 13th Century poet and Sufi mystic from Persia. It always amazes me how universal his words are and how they have transcended time. Here are a few of my favourites:

"Do a good deed and throw it in the river, one day it will come back to you in the desert." - Rumi

“Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.” - Rumi

“When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.” - Rumi

"Let yourself be drawn by the stronger pull of what you love." - Rumi

"Remember, the entrance to the sanctuary is inside you." - Rumi
