Quotes from Khalil Gibran


LOVE

One day you will ask me which is more important? my life or yours? I will say mine and you will walk away not knowing that you are my life.


AMBITION

What good is there, pray thee tell me,
In jostling through the crowd in life,
'Mid the argumental tumult,
Protestation, and endless strife;
Mole-like burrowing in darkness,
Grasping for the spider's thread,
Always thwarted in ambition, Until the living join the dead.

BEAUTY


Beauty is not in the face;
Beauty is a light in the heart


DOUBT

Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother.

KINDNESS

I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet, strange, I am ungrateful to those teachers.

Some great quotes, my friends! I particularly love the one about Beauty...have found myself quoting that a number of times. The other one I usually tend to use to help guide folks is "Think not you can direct the course of love. For love, if it finds you worthy, will direct your course".

Everything in life is good; even gold, for it teaches a lesson. Money is like a stringed instrument; he who does not know how to use it properly will hear only discordant music. Money is like love; it kills slowly and painfully the one who withholds it, and it enlivens the other who turns it upon his fellow man
