Quote

Hearts united in pain and sorrow will not be separated by joy and happiness. Bonds that are woven in sadness are stronger than the ties of joy and pleasure. Love that is washed by tears will remain eternally pure and faithful.

Cover me with soft earth, and let each handful be mixed With seeds ofjasmine, lilies, and myrtle and when they Grow above me and thrive on my body's element they will Breathe the fragrance of my heart into space.

There are those who give with joy, and that joy is their reward.

Khalil Gibran
Image
March on. Do not tarry. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life's path.
Khalil Gibran
Image
They deem me mad because I will not sell my days for gold and I deem them mad because they think my days have a price.
Khalil Gibran
Image
For this I bless you most. You give much and know not that you give at all.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother. Doubt is a foundling unhappy and astray, and though his own mother who gave him birth should find him and enfold him, he would withdraw in caution and in fear.
Khalil Gibran
Image
For a love to grow through the test of everyday living, one must respect that zone of privacy where one retires to relate to the inside instead of the outside.
Khalil Gibran
Image
It was in my heart to help a little because I was helped much.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Death most resembles a prophet who is without honor in his own land or a poet who is a stranger among his people.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Poetry, my dear friends, is a sacred incarnation of a smile. Poetry is a sigh that dries the tears. Poetry is a spirit who dwells in the soul, whose nourishment is the heart, whose wine is affection. Poetry that comes not in this form is a false messiah.

If you sing of beauty though alone in the heart of the desert you will have an audience.
