More quotes by Khalil Gibran
You cannot laugh and be unkind at the same time
Khalil Gibran
There must be something strangely sacred about salt. It is in our tears and in the sea.
Khalil Gibran
Love one another, but make not a bond of love.
Khalil Gibran
Am I a harp that the hand of the mighty may touch me, or a flute that his breath may pass through me? A seeker of silences am I, and what treasure have I found in silences that I may dispense with confidence?
Khalil Gibran
There are those who give little of the much which they have - and they give it for recognition and their hidden desire makes their gifts unwholesome.
Khalil Gibran
The feelings we live through in love and in loneliness are simply, for us, what high tide and low tide are to the sea.
Khalil Gibran
For if you bake bread with indifference, you bake a bitter bread that feeds but half man's hunger.
Khalil Gibran
Extreme torture is mute, and so we sat silent, petrified, like columns of marble buried under the sand of an earthquake. Neither wished to listen to the other because our heart-threads had become weak and even breathing would have broken them.
Khalil Gibran
Am I less man because I believe in a greater man?
Khalil Gibran
Mother: the most beautiful word on the lips of mankind.
Khalil Gibran
The lights of stars that were extinguished ages ago still reaches us. So it is with great men who died centuries ago, but still reach us with the radiations of their personalities.
Khalil Gibran
Who can separate his faith from his actions, or his belief from his occupations?
Khalil Gibran
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
Your friend is your needs answered.
Khalil Gibran
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
As one's gifts increase, his friends decrease.
Khalil Gibran
Darkness is dawn not yet born.
Khalil Gibran
Rob a neighbour with a smile.
Khalil Gibran
For truth and the spirit will abide with the morrow.
Khalil Gibran
...unless the exchange be in love and kindly justice, it will but lead some to greed and others to hunger.
Khalil Gibran
