Have you not heard of the man who was digging in the earth for roots and found a treasure?
Khalil Gibran
Image
Death most resembles a prophet who is without honor in his own land or a poet who is a stranger among his people.
Khalil Gibran

Khalil Gibran
Image
All that spirits desire, spirits attain.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The love of a parent for a child is the love that should grow towards separation.
Khalil Gibran

The saint and the sinner are twin brothers...one was born but the moment before the other.
Khalil Gibran

Khalil Gibran
Image
When you reach the heart of life you shall find beauty in all things, even in the eyes that are blind to beauty.
Khalil Gibran
Image
If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. And if they don't, they never were.
Khalil Gibran
Image
And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.
Khalil Gibran
Image
But now I have learned to listen to silence. To hear its choirs singing the song of ages, chanting the hymns of space, and disclosing the secrets of eternity.
Khalil Gibran
Image
if you cannot but weep when your soul summons you to prayer, she should spur you again and yet again, though weeping, until you shall come laughing
Khalil Gibran
Image
For thought is a bird of space, that in a cage of words may indeed unfold its wings but cannot fly.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Love is all I can possess and no one can deprive me of it. Kahlil Gibran (Visions of the Prophet)
Khalil Gibran
Image
The thirst of soul is sweeter than the wine of material things, and the fear of spirit is dearer than the security of the body.
Khalil Gibran
