What of the old serpent who cannot shed his skin, and calls all others naked and shameless?
Khalil GibranThese things he said in words. But much in his heart remained unsaid. For he himself could not speak his deeper secret.
Khalil GibranIt is not the image you would see nor the song you would hear, but rather an image you see though you close your eyes and a song you hear though you shut your ears.
Khalil GibranSolitude has soft, silky hands, but with strong fingers it grasps the heart and makes it ache with sorrow.
Khalil GibranSay not, 'I have found the truth,' but rather, 'I have found a truth.' Say not, ' I have found the path of the soul.' Say rather, 'I have met the soul walking upon my path.' For the soul walks upon all paths. The soul walks not upon a line, neither does it grow like a reed. The soul unfolds itself, like a lotus of countless petals.
