Khalil Gibran

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
Give me an ear and I will give you a Voice.
Khalil Gibran
Image
When we oppose the hidden conscience, it does us hurt. When we betray it, it judges us.
Khalil Gibran
Image
You are your own forerunner, and the towers you have builded are but the foundation of your giant-self. And that self too shall be a foundation.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Spiritual awakening is the most essential thing in man's life, and it is the sole purpose of being. Is not civilization, in all its tragic forms, a supreme motive for spiritual awakening?
Khalil Gibran
Image
No human relation gives one possession in another—every two souls are absolutely different. In friendship or in love, the two side by side raise hands together to find what one cannot reach alone.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Hell is not in torture Hell is in an empty heart.
Khalil Gibran
Image
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.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.
Khalil Gibran
