When you have grasped a problem clearly, face it with resolution, for that is the way of the strong.
Khalil GibranDeath most resembles a prophet who is without honor in his own land or a poet who is a stranger among his people.
Khalil GibranThe heart's affections are divided like the branches of the cedar tree; if the tree loses one strong branch; it will suffer but it does not die; it will pour all its vitality into the next branch so that it will grow and fill the empty place.
Khalil GibranMarriage is the union of two divinities that a third might be born on earth. It is the union of two souls in a strong love for the abolishment of separateness. It is that higher unity which fuses the separate unities within the two spirits. It is the golden ring in a chain whose beginning is a glance, and whose ending is Eternity. It is the pure rain that falls from an unblemished sky to fructify and bless the fields of divine Nature.
