Jalaluddin Rumi is one of my favorite poets. As an introduction to twelve of his inspirational quotes, I’ve included the following excerpt from “Rumi’s Untold Story,” a free online e-book by Shahram Shiva:

“Rumi’s life story is full of intrigue and high drama mixed with intense creative outbursts. Rumi was a charming, wealthy nobleman, a genius theologian, law professor and a brilliant but sober scholar, who in his late thirties met a wandering and wild holy man by the name of Shams. In Rumi’s own words, after meeting Shams he was transformed from a bookish, sober scholar to an impassioned seeker of universal truth and love.

Dear Friends,

“The time for life is now. The time for love is now.
The time to do it is now, not tomorrow.”
—Leo Buscaglia

“Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.”
John Lennon, from “Beautiful Boy”
