More quotes by Khalil Gibran
A little while, a moment of rest upon the wind, and another woman shall bear me.
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
Inspiration is in seeing a part of the whole with the part of the whole in you.
Khalil Gibran
Much of your pain is self-chosen.
Khalil Gibran
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Khalil Gibran
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
Zeal is a volcano, the peak of which the grass of indecisiveness does not grow.
Khalil Gibran
Only love and death will change all things.
Khalil Gibran
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.
Khalil Gibran
The love of a parent for a child is the love that should grow towards separation.
Khalil Gibran
Pain and foolishness lead to great bliss and complete knowledge, for Eternal Wisdom created nothing under the sun in vain.
Khalil Gibran
I have never agreed with my other self wholly. The truth of the matter seems to lie between us.
Khalil Gibran
A root is a flower that disdains fame.
Khalil Gibran
A word I want to see written on my grave: I am alive like you, and I am standing beside you. Close your eyes and look around, you will see me in front of you.
Khalil Gibran
Love possesses not nor will it be possessed, for love is sufficient unto love.
Khalil Gibran
Lovers embrace that which is between them rather than each other.
Khalil Gibran
Your house is your larger body.
Khalil Gibran
Your reason and your passion are your rudder and sails of your seafaring soul, if either your sails or your rudder be broken, you can but toss and drift, or else be held at a standstill in mid-seas. For reason, ruling alone, is a force confining and passion, unattended, is a flame that burns to its own destruction.
Khalil Gibran
Let your bending in the Archer's hand be for gladness, for even as he loves the arrow that flies, so he loves also the bow that is stable.
Khalil Gibran
You progress not through what has been done, but reaching towards what has yet to be done.
Khalil Gibran
