Poetry is not the opinion stated. It is a song that appears instead of a bloody wound or a smiling mouth.

More quotes by Khalil Gibran
To know the pain of too much tenderness
Khalil Gibran
Rebellion without truth is like spring in a bleak, arid desert.
Khalil Gibran
We fear death, yet we long for slumber and beautiful dreams.
Khalil Gibran
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
Sadness is but a wall between two gardens.
Khalil Gibran
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
There is a desire deep within the soul which drives man from the seen to the unseen, to philosophy and to the divine.
Khalil Gibran
You are not enclosed within your bodies, nor confined to houses or fields. That which is you dwells above the mountain and roves with the wind.
Khalil Gibran
Lovers embrace that which is between them rather than each other.
Khalil Gibran
Say not, 'I have found the truth,' but rather, 'I have found a truth.'
Khalil Gibran
All our words are but crumbs that fall down from the feast of the mind.
Khalil Gibran
Passionate love is a quenchless thirst.
Khalil Gibran
For the vision of one man lends not its wings to another man.
Khalil Gibran
Love is all I can possess and no one can deprive me of it. Kahlil Gibran (Visions of the Prophet)
Khalil Gibran
The lust for comfort, that stealthy thing that enters the house a guest, and then becomes a host, and then a master.
Khalil Gibran
In truth you owe naught to any man. You owe to all men.
Khalil Gibran
Fear of the devil is one way of doubting God.
Khalil Gibran
To belittle, you have to be little.
Khalil Gibran
You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts.
Khalil Gibran
I am the lover's gift I am the wedding wreath I am the memory of a moment of happiness I am the last gift of the living to the dead I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow.
Khalil Gibran
