Image
Life without Liberty is like a body without spirit. Liberty without thought is like a disturbed spirit.
Khalil Gibran
Image
When you work you are a flute through whose heart the whispering of the hours turns to music. Which of you would be a reed, dumb and silent, when all else sings together in unison?
Khalil Gibran
Image
Sow a seed and the earth will yield you a flower. Dream your dream to the sky and it will bring you your beloved.
Khalil Gibran
Image
For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning. Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun, so shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.
Khalil Gibran
Image
I want every image to be the beginning of an unseen image.
Khalil Gibran
Image
I existed from all eternity and, behold, I am here and I shall exist till the end of time, for my being has no end.
Khalil Gibran
Image
There must be something strangely sacred about salt. It is in our tears and in the sea.
Khalil Gibran
Image
A teacher can only lead you to the threshold of your own mind.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Faith is a knowledge within the heart, beyond the reach of proof.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Come with us to the field, or go with our brothers to the sea and cast your net. For the land and the sea shall be bountiful to you even as to us.
Khalil Gibran
Image
To know the pain of too much tenderness
Khalil Gibran
Image
When you have solved all the mysteries of life you long for death, for it is but another mystery of life.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Nature reaches out to us with welcoming arms, and bids us enjoy her beauty but we dread her silence and rush into the crowded cities, there to huddle like sheep fleeing from a ferocious wolf.
Khalil Gibran
Image
A traveller I am, and a navigator, and everyday I discover a new region within my soul.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Your friend is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Vague and nebulous is the beginning of all things, but not their end.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Yea, death and prison we mete out To small offenders of the laws, While honor, wealth, and full respect On greater pirates we bestow. To steal a flower we call mean. To rob a field is chivalry Who kills the body he must die, Who kills the spirit he goes free.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Many of us spend our whole lives running from feeling with the mistaken belief that you can not bear the pain. But you have already borne the pain. What you have not done is feel all you are beyond that pain.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Rob a neighbour with a smile.
