Image
Love is the only freedom in the world because it so elevates the spirit that the laws of humanity and the phenomena of nature do not alter its course.
Khalil Gibran
Image
I wash my hands of those who imagine chattering to be knowledge, silence to be ignorance, and affection to be art.
Khalil Gibran
Image
You are good when you are one with yourself. Yet when you are not one with yourself you are not evil. For a divided house is not a den of thieves it is only a divided house. And a ship without rudder may wander aimlessly among perilous isles yet sink not to the bottom.
Khalil Gibran
Image
No man can reveal to you nothing but that which already lies half-asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.

Follow your heart. Your heart is the right guide in everything big. Mine is so limited. What you want to do is determined by that divine element that is in each of us.
Khalil Gibran

Give me an ear and I will give you a Voice.
Khalil Gibran

Let your bending in the Archer's hand be for gladness, for even as he loves the arrow that flies, so he loves also the bow that is stable.
Khalil Gibran
Image
He is short-sighted who looks only on the path he treads and the wall on which he leans.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Spare me the political events and power struggles, as the whole earth is my homeland and all men are my fellow countrymen.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The teacher gives not of his wisdom, but rather of his faith and lovingness.
Khalil Gibran
Image
They tell me: If you see a slave sleeping, do not wake him lest he be dreaming of freedom. I tell them: If you see a slave sleeping, wake him and explain to him freedom.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Take then this Book, look into it, and show me when Jesus was not forgiving. Read this diving tragedy and tell me where He speaks without mercy and compassion. You visit not the sick and the imprisoned nor do you feed the hungry or give refuge to the stranger or comfort to the mourner.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Poverty is a veil that obscures the face of greatness. An appeal is a mask covering the face of tribulation.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Should we all confess our sins to one another we would all laugh at one another for our lack of originality
