More quotes by Khalil Gibran
You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts And when you can no longer dwell in the solitude of your heart you live in your lips, and sound is a diversion and a pastime. And in much of your talking, thinking is half murdered.
Khalil Gibran
Your friend is your needs answered.
Khalil Gibran
It has been said that next to hunger and thirst, our most basic human need is for storytelling.
Khalil Gibran
The poet is a bird of strange moods. He descends from his lofty domain to tarry among us, singing if we do not honor him he will unfold his wings and fly back to his dwelling place.
Khalil Gibran
I once heard a learned man say, Every evil has its remedy, except folly. To reprimand an obstinate fool or to preach to a dolt is like writing upon the water. Christ healed the blind, the halt, the palsied, and the leprous. But the fool He could not cure.
Khalil Gibran
Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.
Khalil Gibran
Lovers embrace that which is between them rather than each other.
Khalil Gibran
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Khalil Gibran
You have your ideology and I have mine.
Khalil Gibran
What is this world that is hastening me toward I know not what, viewing me with contempt?
Khalil Gibran
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
Love... it surrounds every being and extends slowly to embrace all that shall be.
Khalil Gibran
Zeal is a volcano, the peak of which the grass of indecisiveness does not grow.
Khalil Gibran
Life without Liberty is like a body without spirit. Liberty without thought is like a disturbed spirit.
Khalil Gibran
And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.
Khalil Gibran
And alone and without his nest shall the Eagle fly across the sun.
Khalil Gibran
Man struggles to find life outside himself, unaware that the life he is seeking is within him.
Khalil Gibran
If we were to all sit in a circle and confess our sins, we would laugh at each other for lack of originality.
Khalil Gibran
Like the seeds dreaming beneath the snow your heart dreams of spring.
Khalil Gibran
Marriage is like a golden ring in a chain, whose beginning is a glance and whose ending is eternity.
Khalil Gibran
