Whoever would be a teacher of ...

Whoever would be a teacher of men let him begin by teaching himself before teaching others; and let him teach by example before teaching by word. For he who teaches himself and rectifies his own ways is more deserving of respect and reverence than he who would teach others and rectify their ways.

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

Each thing that exists remains...

Each thing that exists remains forever, and that very existence of existence is proof of its eternity. But without that realization, which is the knowledge of perfect being, man would never know whether there was existence or non-existence. If eternal existence is altered, then it must become more beautiful; and if it disappears, it must return with more sublime image; and if it sleeps, it must dream of a better awakening, for it is ever greater upon its rebirth.

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

Only those return to Eternity ...

Only those return to Eternity Who on earth seek out Eternity.

The sorrowful spirit finds relaxation in solitude. It abhors people, as a wounded deer deserts the herd and lives in a cave until it is healed or dead.

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

The power to Love is God's greatest gift to man, For it never will be taken from the Blessed one who loves.

Give and Take...
For to the bee a flower is a fountain if life
And to the flower a bee is a messenger of love
And to both, bee and flower,
the giving and the receiving is a need and an ecstasy.

How can I lose faith in the justice of life, when the dreams of those who sleep upon feathers are not more beautiful than the dreams of those who sleep upon the earth?

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious to the rose.

To love life through our labor is to be intimate with life's inmost secrets.

If aught I have said is truth,...

If aught I have said is truth, that truth shall reveal itself in a clearer voice, and in words more kin to your thoughts.

Wisdom is not in words; Wisdom is meaning within words.

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

God has bestowed upon you intelligence and knowledge. Do not extinguish the lamp of Divine Grace and do not let the candle of wisdom die out in the darkness of lust and error. For a wise man approaches with his torch to light up the path of mankind.

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

My brothers, seek counsel of o...

My brothers, seek counsel of one another, for therein lies the way out of error and futile repentance. The wisdom of the many is your shield against tyranny. For when we turn to one another for counsel we reduce the number of our enemies.

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

Youth is a beautiful dream, on...

Youth is a beautiful dream, on whose brightness books shed a blinding dust. Will ever the day come when the wise link the joy of knowledge to youth's dream? Will ever the day come when Nature becomes the teacher of man, humanity his book and life his school? Youth's joyous purpose cannot be fulfilled until that day comes. Too slow is our march toward spiritual elevation, because we make so little use of youth's ardor.

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

They tell me: If you see a slave sleeping, do not wake him lest he be dreaming of freedom. I tell them: If you see a slave sleeping, wake him and explain to him freedom.

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

A woman whom Providence has pr...

A woman whom Providence has provided with beauty of spirit and body is a truth, at the same time both open and secret, which we can understand only by love, and touch only by virtue.

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

God has given you a spirit wit...

God has given you a spirit with wings on which to soar into the spacious firmament of Love and Freedom. Is it not pitiful than that you cut your wings with your own hands and suffer your soul to crawl like an insect upon the earth?

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

Who among you does not feel th...

Who among you does not feel that his power to love is boundless? And yet who does not feel that very love, though boundless, encompassed within the center of his being, and moving not from love thought to love thought, nor from love deeds to other love deeds?

Khalil Gibran 915 quotes

The truly just is he who feels...

The truly just is he who feels half guilty of your misdeeds.
