More Quotes by Khalil Gibran
Yesterday is but today's memory, and tomorrow is today's dream.
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.
How beautiful to find a heart that loves you, without asking you for anything, but to be okay.
In every winter's heart there is a quivering spring, and behind the veil of each night there is a shining dawn.
All things in this vast universe exist in you, with you, and for you.
Jesus was not sent here to teach the people to build magnificent churches and temples amidst the cold wretched huts and dismal hovels. He came to make the human heart a temple, and the soul an altar, and the mind a priest.
A man's true wealth is the good he does in the world.
If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. And if they don't, they never were.
And God said, Love your enemy, & I obeyed Him & loved myself.
You may forget with whom you laughed, but you will never forget with whom you wept.
