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
Say not, I have found the path of the soul Say rather, I have met the soul walking upon my path.
Khalil Gibran

Conscience is a just but weak judge. Weakness leaves it powerless to execute its judgment.
Khalil Gibran

What difference is there between us, save a restless dream that follows my soul but fears to come near you?
Khalil Gibran
Image
In the depth of my soul there is A wordless song - a song that lives In the seed of my heart. It refuses to melt with ink on Parchment it engulfs my affection In a transparent cloak and flows, But not upon my lips.
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

Of the good in you I can speak, but not of the evil. For what is evil but good tortured by its own hunger and thirst? Verily when good is hungry it seeks food even in dark caves, and when it thirsts it drinks even of dead waters.
Khalil Gibran

And all knowledge is vain save when there is work, and all work is empty save when there is love and when you work with love you bind yourself to yourself, and to one another, and to God.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The lights of stars that were extinguished ages ago still reaches us. So it is with great men who died centuries ago, but still reach us with the radiations of their personalities.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The mother is everything - she is our consolation in sorrow, our hope in misery, and our strength in weakness. She is the source of love, mercy, sympathy, and forgiveness. He who loses his mother loses a pure soul who blesses and guards him constantly
Khalil Gibran
Image
Braving obstacles and hardships is braver than retreat to tranquility.
Khalil Gibran
Image
A shy failure is nobler than an immodest success.
Khalil Gibran
Image
What is this world that is hastening me toward I know not what, viewing me with contempt?
Khalil Gibran
Image
When you part from your friend, you grieve not For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.
Khalil Gibran
Image
I have never agreed with my other self wholly. The truth of the matter seems to lie between us.
Khalil Gibran
