More quotes by Khalil Gibran
In a dream I saw Jesus and My God Pan sitting together in the heart of the forest. They laughed at each other's speech, with the brook that ran near them, and the laughter of Jesus was the merrier. And they conversed long.
Khalil Gibran
Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping, For only the hand of God can contain your hearts.
Khalil Gibran
When you see a man led to prison say in your heart, Mayhap he is escaping from a narrower prison. And when you see a man drunken say in your heart, Mayhap he sought escape from something still more unbeautiful.
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
It is only when you are pursued that you become swift.
Khalil Gibran
All can hear, but only the sensitive can understand.

Khalil Gibran
As one's gifts increase, his friends decrease.
Khalil Gibran
Wit is often a mask. If you tear it you will find either genius irritated or cleverness juggling.
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
Art is a step in the known toward the unknown
Khalil Gibran
Make me, oh God, the prey of the Lion, ere you make the rabbit my prey
Khalil Gibran
Beauty is that which attracts your soul, and that which loves to give and not to receive.
Khalil Gibran
