More Quotes by Khalil Gibran
And ever has it been known that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
Listen to the women when she looks at you, not when she talks to you.
Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost.
Behind the veil of each night, there is a smilling dawn.
Our worst fault is our preoccupation with the faults of others.
All things in this vast universe exist in you, with you, and for you.
I do not want you to hear that I LOVE you, but I want you to feel it without me having to say.
All can hear, but only the sensitive can understand.
I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet, strange, I am ungrateful to those teachers.
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.
