More quotes by Khalil Gibran
For truth and the spirit will abide with the morrow.
Khalil Gibran
Should we all confess our sins to one another we would all laugh at one another for our lack of originality
Khalil Gibran
Verily the lust for comfort murders the passion of the soul, and then walks grinning in the funeral.
Khalil Gibran
Much of your pain is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self.
Khalil Gibran
And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb.
Khalil Gibran
The longing for paradise is paradise itself.
Khalil Gibran
When love beckons to you, follow him, Though his ways are hard and steep. And when his wings enfold you yield to him, Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you.
Khalil Gibran
Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost.

Between the shores of the oceans and the summit of the highest mountain is a secret route that you must absolutely take before being one with the sons of the Earth.
Khalil Gibran
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
Those to whom worshiping is a window, to open but also to shut, have not yet visited the house of their souls whose windows are open from dawn to dawn.
Khalil Gibran
If it's a despot you would dethrone, see first that his throne erected within you is destroyed.
Khalil Gibran
Every beauty and greatness in this world is created by a single thought or emotion inside a man. Every thing we see today, made by past generations, was, before its appearance, a thought in the mind of a man or an impulse in the heart of a woman.
Khalil Gibran
He was gentle, like a man mindful of his own strength. In my dreams I beheld the kings of the earth standing in awe in His presence.
Khalil Gibran
Art is a step in the known toward the unknown
Khalil Gibran
Who are you that men should rend their bosom and unveil their pride, that you may see their worth naked and their pride unabashed? See first that you yourself deserve to be a giver, and an instrument of giving.
Khalil Gibran
Do not fear the thorns in your path, for they draw only corrupt blood.
Khalil Gibran
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
Our worst fault is our preoccupation with the faults of others.
Khalil Gibran
