More Quotes by Khalil Gibran
A man's true wealth is the good he does in the world.
I do not want you to hear that I LOVE you, but I want you to feel it without me having to say.
When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.
We are limited, not by our abilities, but by our vision.
Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, and though they are with you, yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love, but not your thoughts. For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, for their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward, nor tarries with yesterday.
If I accept the sunshine and warmth, then I must also accept the thunder and lightning.
Keep your heart in wonder at the daily miracles of your life.
The reality of the other person is not in what he reveals to you, but in what he cannot reveal to you. Therefore, if you would understand him, listen not to what he says but rather to what he does not say.
Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry, the philosophy which does not laugh and the greatness which does not bow before children.
If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. And if they don't, they never were.
