Lebanese Poet and Philosopher

Quotes  Books     

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?

When Good is hungry, it seeks food, even in dark caves, and when it thirsts, it drinks even of dead waters.

Kahlil Gibran Quotes  Kahlil Gibran Books     

When you part from your friend, you grieve not; For that which you love most in her may be clearer in her absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.

Kahlil Gibran

Lebanese Poet and Philosopher

Quotes  Books     

How generous you are, Earth,
and how strong is your yearning for your children
lost between that which they have attained
and that which they could not obtain.
We clamor and you smile; we flit but you stay!
We extract your elements to make cannons and bombs,
but out of our elements you create lilies and roses.

All you have shall some day be given;
Therefore give now, that the season of giving
may be yours and not your inheritors.

Kahlil Gibran

Quotes  Books     

You often say, "I would give, but only to the deserving."
The trees in your orchard say not so, nor the flocks in your pastures.
They give that they may live, for to withhold is to perish.
Surely he who is worthy to receive his days and his nights,
is worthy of all else from you.
