Wisdom Quote by Khalil Gibran — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Of life's two chief prizes, beauty and truth, I found the first in a loving heart and the second in a laborer's hand.”

“It is wrong to think that love comes from long companionship and persevering courtship. Love is the offspring of spiritual affinity and unless that affinity is created in a moment, it will not be created for years or even generations.”

“On Pleasure”

“For Reason, ruling alone, is a force confining; and Passion, unattended,”

“He who is more mindful of one, loses the love and the faith of both.”

“I AM IGNORANT of absolute truth. But I am humble before my ignorance and therein lies my honor and my reward.”

“There are moments when troubles enter our lives and we can do nothing to avoid them.”

“Fettered feet in the presence of friends is better than living in a garden with strangers.”

“Sometimes I think that wisdoms slip from my mind like drool from the lips of an idiot...”

“It's funny how the ugly duckling always has so many beautiful things to teach us.”

“The measure of intelligence is the ability to change.”

“I would rather be able to appreciate things I cannot have than to have things I am not able to appreciate.”
