More quotes by Khalil Gibran
How can I lose faith in the justice of life, when the dreams of those who sleep upon feathers are not more beautiful than the dreams of those who sleep upon the earth?
Khalil Gibran
You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.
Khalil Gibran
Love... it surrounds every being and extends slowly to embrace all that shall be.
Khalil Gibran

Khalil Gibran
But if in your fear you would seek only love's peace and love's pleasure, then it is better for you that you cover your nakedness and pass out of love's threshing-floor, into the seasonless world where you shall laugh, but not all of your laughter, and weep, but not all of your tears.
Khalil Gibran
She danced the dance of flames and fire, and the dance of swords and spears she danced the dance of stars and the dance of space, and then she danced the dance of flowers in the wind.
Khalil Gibran
Every man is two men one is awake in the darkness, the other asleep in the light.
Khalil Gibran
The tears that you spill, the sorrowful, are sweeter than the laughter of snobs and the guffaws of scoffers.
Khalil Gibran
Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing.
Khalil Gibran
Love is the gentle smile upon the lips of beauty.
Khalil Gibran
It has been said that next to hunger and thirst, our most basic human need is for storytelling.
Khalil Gibran
Love and doubt have never been on speaking terms.
Khalil Gibran
And ever has it been known that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
Khalil Gibran
In truth you owe naught to any man. You owe to all men.
Khalil Gibran
You may strive to be like them but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
Khalil Gibran
Verily all things move within your being in constant half embrace, the desired and the dreaded, the repugnant and the cherished, the pursued and that which you would escape.
Khalil Gibran
When life does not find a singer to sing her heart she produces a philosopher to speak her mind.
Khalil Gibran
