Faith is an oasis in the heart which will never be reached by the caravan of thinking.
From Khalil Gibran
If my survival caused another to perish, then death would be sweeter and more beloved.
Your friend is your needs answered.
When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy. When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.
Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
I love you when you bow in your mosque, kneel in your temple, pray in your church. For you and I are sons of one religion, and it is the spirit.
Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.
Generosity is not giving me that which I need more than you do, but it is giving me that which you need more than I do.
When you work you are a flute through whose heart the whispering of the hours turns to music. Which of you would be a reed, dumb and silent, when all else sings together in unison?
I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet, strange, I am ungrateful to those teachers.
