Image
The creator gives no heed to the critic unless he becomes a barren inventor.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Life without Liberty is like a body without spirit. Liberty without thought is like a disturbed spirit.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Pain and foolishness lead to great bliss and complete knowledge, for Eternal Wisdom created nothing under the sun in vain.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Mother: the most beautiful word on the lips of mankind.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The appearance of things changes according to the emotions and thus we see magic and beauty in them, while the magic and beauty are really in ourselves.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The teacher gives not of his wisdom, but rather of his faith and lovingness.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Seven times have I despised my soul: The sixth time when she despised the ugliness of a face, and knew not that it was one of her own masks.
Khalil Gibran
Image
You are persecuted and despised. It were better that a person should be the oppressed than that he should be the oppressor and fitter that he should be a victim to the frailty of human instincts than that he should be powerful and crush the flowers of life and disfigure the beauties of feeling with his desire.
Khalil Gibran
Image
You have been told that, even like a chain, you are as weak as your weakest link. This is but half the truth. You are also as strong as your strongest link. To measure you by your smallest deed is to reckon the power of ocean by the frailty of its foam. To judge you by your failures is to cast blame upon the seasons for their inconstancy.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Let there be spaces in your togetherness
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
The tiny flame that lights up the human heart is like a blazing torch that comes down from heaven to light up the paths of mankind. For in one soul are contained the hopes and feelings of all Mankind.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The subtlest beauties in our life are unseen and unheard.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Come with us to the field, or go with our brothers to the sea and cast your net. For the land and the sea shall be bountiful to you even as to us.
Khalil Gibran
Image
I am one of those who believe that spiritual progress is a rule of human life, but the approach to perfection is slow and painful. If a woman elevates herself in one respect and is retarded in another, it is because the rough trail that leads to the mountain peak is not free of ambushes of thieves and lairs of wolves.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Love descends upon our souls by the will of God and not by the demand or the plea of the individual.
Khalil Gibran
Image
For what is prayer but the expansion of your self into the living ether?
Khalil Gibran
Image
I came here to be for all and with all, and what I do today in my solitude will be echoed tomorrow by the multitude. What I say now with one heart will be said tomorrow by thousands of hearts.
Khalil Gibran
Image
For if you bake bread with indifference, you bake a bitter bread that feeds but half man's hunger.
Khalil Gibran
