Image
True love cannot be found where it truly does not exist, Nor can it be hidden where it truly does. Anonymous Love possesses not nor would it be possessed For love is sufficient unto love.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Be like a flower and turn your face to the sun.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping, For only the hand of God can contain your hearts.
Khalil Gibran
Image
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
Image
I would tell you more of Him, but how shall I? When love becomes vast love becomes wordless. And when memory is overladen it seeks the silent deep.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Love is the only freedom in the world because it so elevates the spirit that the laws of humanity and the phenomena of nature do not alter its course.
Khalil Gibran
Image
For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun? And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.
Khalil Gibran
Image
I sit between my brother the mountain and my sister the sea. We three are one in loneliness, and the love that binds us together is deep and strong and strange.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother.
Khalil Gibran
Image
I have found both freedom and safety in my madness the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The saint and the sinner are twin brothers...one was born but the moment before the other.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Those who give you a serpent when you ask for a fish, may have nothing but serpents to give.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Spiritual awakening is the most essential thing in man's life, and it is the sole purpose of being. Is not civilization, in all its tragic forms, a supreme motive for spiritual awakening?
Khalil Gibran
Image
When life does not find a singer to sing her heart she produces a philosopher to speak her mind.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Would that I were a dry well, and that the people tossed stones into me, for that would be easier than to be a spring of flowing water that the thirsty pass by, and from which they avoid drinking.
Khalil Gibran
Image
He alone is great who turns the voice of the wind into a song made sweeter by his own loving.
Khalil Gibran
Image
All men love you for themselves. I love you for yourself.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Perplexity is the beginning of knowledge.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Say not, 'I have found the truth,' but rather, 'I have found a truth.'
Khalil Gibran
