I love you when you bow in your mosque, kneel in your temple, pray in your church. For you and I are sons of one religion, and it is the spirit.

More quotes by Khalil Gibran

Image
When God created Man, he gave him Music as a language different from all other languages. And early man sang his glory in the wilderness and drew the hearts of kings and moved them from their thrones.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Many a doctrine is like a window pane. We see truth through it but it divides us from truth.
Khalil Gibran
Image
I have passed the mountain peak and my soul is soaring in the firmament of Complete and unbounded freedom I am in comfort, I am in peace.
Khalil Gibran
Image
You often say, I would give, but only to the deserving. The trees in your orchard say not so, nor the flocks in your pasture. They give that they may live, for to withhold is to perish.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Let there be spaces in your togetherness...just as strings of a lute dance alone though they quiver with the same music.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Coming generations will learn equality from poverty, and love from woes.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Your confidence in the people, and your doubt about them, are closely related to your self-confidence and your self-doubt.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Only those return to Eternity Who on earth seek out Eternity.
Khalil Gibran
Image
You may forget with whom you laughed, but you will never forget with whom you wept.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Love that does not renew itself every day becomes a habit and in turn a slavery.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Love passes by us, robed in meekness but we flee from her in fear, or hide in the darkness or else pursue her, to do evil in her name.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Tortoises can tell you more about the road than hares.
Khalil Gibran
Image
My friend, I am not what I seem. Seeming is but a garment I wear — a care-woven garment that protects me from thy questionings and thee from my negligence. The I in me, my friend, dwells in the house of silence, and therein it shall remain for ever more, unperceived, unapproachable.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Verily all things move within your being in constant half embrace, the desired and the dreaded, the repugnant and the cherished, the pursued and that which you would escape.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Life without Liberty is like a body without spirit. Liberty without thought is like a disturbed spirit.
Khalil Gibran
Image
To be able to look back upon ones life in satisfaction, is to live twice.
Khalil Gibran
Image
you can muffle the drum, and you can loosen the strings of the lyre, but who shall command the skylark not to sing?
Khalil Gibran
Image
In the depth of my soul there is a wordless song.
Khalil Gibran
Image
All you have shall some day be given. Therefore give now, that the season of giving may be yours and not your inheritors.
Khalil Gibran
Image
A traveller I am, and a navigator, and everyday I discover a new region within my soul.
Khalil Gibran
