More quotes by Khalil Gibran

Image
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.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Your fear of death is but the trembling of the shepherd when he stands before the king whose hand is to be laid upon him in honour.
Khalil Gibran
Image
All can hear, but only the sensitive can understand.
Khalil Gibran
Image
And is not the lute that soothes your spirit the very wood that was hollowed with knives?
Khalil Gibran
Image
Passionate love is a quenchless thirst.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Let your home be you mast and not your anchor.
Khalil Gibran

For what is evil but good tortured by its own hunger and thirst?
Khalil Gibran
Image
For this I bless you most. You give much and know not that you give at all.
Khalil Gibran

For in truth it is life that gives unto life-while you, who deem yourself a giver, are but a witness.
Khalil Gibran

I love you when you bow in your mosque, kneel in your temple, pray in your church. For you and I are sons of one religion, and it is the spirit.
Khalil Gibran

Khalil Gibran

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
Rob a neighbour with a smile.
Khalil Gibran
Image
I learnt silence from the talkative
Khalil Gibran
Image
What is fear of need but need itself?
Khalil Gibran
Image
Rebellion without truth is like spring in a bleak, arid desert.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Hearts united in pain and sorrow will not be separated by joy and happiness. Bonds that are woven in sadness are stronger than the ties of joy and pleasure. Love that is washed by tears will remain eternally pure and faithful.
Khalil Gibran
