Poetry is not the opinion stated. It is a song that appears instead of a bloody wound or a smiling mouth.
Khalil GibranObserve the wonders as they occur around you. Don't claim them. Feel the artistry moving through and be silent.
Khalil GibranHumanity looks upon Jesus the Nazarene as a poor-born Who suffered misery and humiliation with all of the weak. And He is pitied, for Humanity believes He was crucified painfully. . . . And all that Humanity offers to Him is crying and wailing and lamentation. For centuries Humanity has been worshiping weakness in the person of the Savior. The Nazarene was not weak! He was strong and is strong! But the people refuse to heed the true meaning of strength.
