Kahlil Gibran Quotes

I love you my brother whoever you are whether you worship in your Church, kneel in your Temple, or pray in your Mosque. You and I are all children of one faith, for the diverse paths of religion are fingers of the loving hand of one Supreme Being, a hand extended to all, offering completeness of spirit to all, eager to receive all.

Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.

Work is love made visible

Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.

For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.

Love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.

Half of what I say is meaningless;
but I say it so that the other half may reach you.
