Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother. Doubt is a foundling unhappy and astray, and though his own mother who gave him birth should find him and enfold him, he would withdraw in caution and in fear.

Khalil Gibran

Khalil Gibran
If your heart is a volcano, how shall you expect flowers to bloom?

Khalil Gibran
Most people who ask for advice from others have already resolved to act as it pleases them.
Khalil Gibran
The nearest to my heart are a king without a kingdom and a poor man who does not know how to beg.
Khalil Gibran
And all knowledge is vain save when there is work, and all work is empty save when there is love and when you work with love you bind yourself to yourself, and to one another, and to God.
Khalil Gibran
I am forever walking upon these shores, Betwixt the sand and the foam, The high tide will erase my food prnts, And the wind will blow away the foam, But the sea and the shore will remain forver
Khalil Gibran
Observe the wonders as they occur around you. Don't claim them. Feel the artistry moving through and be silent.

A teacher can only lead you to the threshold of your own mind.
Khalil Gibran
