Sit by me, my beloved, and listen to my heart; smile, for your happiness is a symbol of our future.
Khalil GibranDo not keep crying when your love has been gone. You only need Smile because he had been given you the opportunity to meet someone who is better.
Khalil GibranReal beauty lies in the spiritual accord that is called love which can exist between a man and a woman.
Khalil GibranFor Reason, ruling alone, is a force confining; and Passion, unattended, is a flame that burns to its own destruction.
Khalil GibranVirtue tested: "Have I not survived hunger and thirst, suffering, and mockery for the sake of the truth which heaven has awakened in my heart?
Khalil GibranBehold, I have reached the peak of the mountain and my spirit has taken flight in the heavens of freedom and liberation. I have gone far, far away, O children of my mother; the hills beyond the mists are now hidden from my view, the last traces of the valleys have been flooded by the ocean of serenity, and the paths and trails have been erased by the hand of oblivion. The roar of ocean waves has faded. I no longer hear anything but the anthem of eternity, which harmonizes with the spirit.
