More Quotes by Khalil Gibran
In the depth of my soul there is a wordless song.
I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet, strange, I am ungrateful to those teachers.
The best of man is he who blushes when you praise him and remains silent when you defame him.
Our worst fault is our preoccupation with the faults of others.
Yesterday is but today's memory, and tomorrow is today's dream.
If I accept the sunshine and warmth, then I must also accept the thunder and lightning.
There must be something strangely sacred about salt. It is in our tears and in the sea.
Every man is two men; one is awake in the darkness, the other asleep in the light.
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.
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.
