Of the good in you I can speak, but not of the evil. For what is evil but good tortured by its own hunger and thirst? Verily when good is hungry it seeks food even in dark caves, and when it thirsts it drinks even of dead waters.
Khalil GibranThe eye of a human being is a microscope, which makes the world seem bigger than it really is.
Khalil GibranI said to Life, I would hear Death speak. And Life raised her voice a little higher and said, You hear him now.
Khalil GibranAnd forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.
Khalil GibranWhen your friend speaks his mind you fear not the 'nay' in your own mind, nor do you withhold the 'ay. And when he is silent your heart ceases not to listen to his heart; For without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires, all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed. When you part from your friend, you grieve not; For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.
Khalil Gibran
