You would know the secret of death. But how shall you find it unless you seek it in the heart of life.

When I planted my pain in the field of patience it bore fruit of happiness.

The first glance from the eyes of the beloved is like the spirit that moved upon the face of the waters, giving birth to heaven and earth.

I do not want you to hear that I LOVE you, but I want you to feel it without me having to say.

And all knowledge is vain save when there is work, and all work is empty save when there is love; and when you work with love you bind yourself to yourself, and to one another, and to God.

The feelings we live through in love and in loneliness are simply, for us, what high tide and low tide are to the sea.

Love is all I can possess and no one can deprive me of it. Kahlil Gibran (Visions of the Prophet)
