More Quotes by Khalil Gibran

Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.
And God said, Love your enemy, & I obeyed Him & loved myself.
All can hear, but only the sensitive can understand.

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.
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.
Listen to the women when she looks at you, not when she talks to you.
In the depth of my soul there is a wordless song.
Our worst fault is our preoccupation with the faults of others.
