You cannot lay remorse upon the innocent nor lift it from the heart of the guilty. Unbidden shall it call in the night, that men may wake and gaze upon themselves.

More quotes by Khalil Gibran
Let your best be for your friend.
Khalil Gibran
A fox looked at his shadow at sunrise and said, “I will have a camel for lunch today.” And all morning he went about looking for camels. But at noon he saw his shadow again-and he said, “A mouse will do.
Khalil Gibran
There are those who give with joy, and that joy is their reward.
Khalil Gibran
And before my Soul took me to task I was hard of hearing I heard only tumult and uproar. But now I am all ears listening to the silence and its choirs singing the hymns of time, intoning the praises of the firmament, revealing the secrets of the invisible.
Khalil Gibran
Give me an ear and I will give you a Voice.
Khalil Gibran
It has been said that next to hunger and thirst, our most basic human need is for storytelling.
Khalil Gibran
I want every image to be the beginning of an unseen image.
Khalil Gibran
The saint and the sinner are twin brothers...one was born but the moment before the other.
Khalil Gibran
Love that does not renew itself every day becomes a habit and in turn a slavery.
Khalil Gibran
It is slavery to live in the mind unless it has become part of the body
Khalil Gibran
Say not, 'I have found the truth,' but rather, 'I have found a truth.' Say not, ' I have found the path of the soul.' Say rather, 'I have met the soul walking upon my path.' For the soul walks upon all paths. The soul walks not upon a line, neither does it grow like a reed. The soul unfolds itself, like a lotus of countless petals.
Khalil Gibran
And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb.
Khalil Gibran
Verily the lust for comfort murders the passion of the soul, and then walks grinning in the funeral.
Khalil Gibran
Trickery succeeds sometimes, but it always commits suicide.
Khalil Gibran
Most people who ask for advice from others have already resolved to act as it pleases them.
Khalil Gibran
When you have solved all the mysteries of life you long for death, for it is but another mystery of life.
Khalil Gibran
Passionate love is a quenchless thirst.
Khalil Gibran
Extreme torture is mute, and so we sat silent, petrified, like columns of marble buried under the sand of an earthquake. Neither wished to listen to the other because our heart-threads had become weak and even breathing would have broken them.
Khalil Gibran
Do not keep crying when your love has been gone. You only need Smile because he had been given you the opportunity to meet someone who is better.
Khalil Gibran
Your friend is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving.
Khalil Gibran
