More Quotes by Khalil Gibran
A man's true wealth is the good he does in the world.
If I could take your troubles I would toss them into the sea, But all these things I'm finding Are impossible for me. I cannot build a mountain Or catch a rainbow fair, But let me be what I know best, A friend that is always there.
God made the world with a heart full of love, Then He looked down from Heaven above, And saw that we all need a helping hand, Someone to share with, who'll understand. He made special people to see us through The glad times and the sad times, too; A person on whom we can always depend, Someone we can call a friend. God made friends so we'll carry a part Of His perfect love in all our hearts.
The snow and the storm destroy the flower; but its seed they cannot kill.
Every man is two men; one is awake in the darkness, the other asleep in the light.
Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost.
How beautiful to find a heart that loves you, without asking you for anything, but to be okay.
Our anxiety does not come from thinking about the future, but from wanting to control it.
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.
All can hear, but only the sensitive can understand.
