More quotes by 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
A traveller I am, and a navigator, and everyday I discover a new region within my soul.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Let your home be you mast and not your anchor.
Khalil Gibran
Image
If we were to all sit in a circle and confess our sins, we would laugh at each other for lack of originality.
Khalil Gibran
Image
For if you bake bread with indifference, you bake a bitter bread that feeds but half man's hunger.
Khalil Gibran
Image
There are those who give and know not pain in giving, nor do they seek joy, nor give with mindfulness of virtue They give as in yonder valley the myrtle breathes its fragrance into space.
Khalil Gibran
Image
All our words are but crumbs that fall down from the feast of the mind.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The longing for paradise is paradise itself.
Khalil Gibran
Image
My God, my aim and my fulfillment I am thy yesterday and thou are my tomorrow. I am they root in the earth and thou art my flower in the sky, and together we grow before the face of the sun.
Khalil Gibran
Image
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.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Disagreement may be the shortest cut between two minds.
Khalil Gibran
Image
What difference is there between us, save a restless dream that follows my soul but fears to come near you?
Khalil Gibran
Image
God has placed in each soul an apostle to lead us upon the illumined path. Yet many seek life from without, unaware that is within them.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Beauty shall rise with the dawn from the east.
Khalil Gibran
Image
A poet is a bird of unearthly excellence, who escapes from his celestial realm arrives in this world warbling. If we do not cherish him, he spreads his wings and flies back into his homeland.
Khalil Gibran
Image
I would not exchange the laughter of my heart for the fortunes of the multitudes.
Khalil Gibran
Image
And some of your elders remember pleasures with regret like wrongs committed in drunkenness. But regret is the beclouding of the mind and not its chastisement. They should remember their pleasures with gratitude, as they would the harvest of a summer.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Let passion fill your sails, but let reason be your rudder.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Poetry is a deal of joy and pain and wonder, with a dash of the dictionary.
Khalil Gibran
Image
He who loses his mother loses a pure soul who blesses and guards him constantly.
Khalil Gibran
