Image
Of life's two chief prizes, beauty and truth, I found the first in a loving heart and the second in a laborer's hand.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Of time you would make a stream upon whose bank you would sit and watch its flowing. Yet the timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness, And knows that 'yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The lust for comfort, that stealthy thing that enters the house a guest, and then becomes a host, and then a master.
Khalil Gibran
Image
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
Image
Love passes by us, robed in meekness but we flee from her in fear, or hide in the darkness or else pursue her, to do evil in her name.
Khalil Gibran
Image
A traveller I am, and a navigator, and everyday I discover a new region within my soul.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Thus with my lips have I denounced you, while my heart, bleeding within me, called you tender names.
Khalil Gibran
Image
He who denies his heritage, has no heritage
Khalil Gibran
Image
Even as the holy and the righteous cannot rise beyond the highest which is in each one of you, so the wicked and the weak cannot fall lower than the lowest which is in you also.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Like the seeds dreaming beneath the snow your heart dreams of spring.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Many a doctrine is like a window pane. We see truth through it but it divides us from truth.
Khalil Gibran
Image
If it were not for guests all houses would be graves.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The truly good is he who is one with all those who are deemed bad.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Some who are too scrupulous to steal your possessions nevertheless see no wrong in tampering with your thoughts.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Life is but a sleep disturbed by dreaming, prompted by the will the saddened soul with sadness hides it's secrets, and the gay, with thrill.
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
The truly great man is he who would master no one, and who would be mastered by none.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Love has the power that dispels death charm that conquers the enemy.
Khalil Gibran
Image
You have your ideology and I have mine.
