Where is the justice of political power if it executes the murderer and jails the plunderer, and then itself marches upon neighboring lands, killing thousands and pillaging the very hills? – Khalil Gibran
Your daily life is your temple and your religion. When you enter into it take with you your all. – Khalil Gibran
Hallow the body as a temple to comeliness and sanctify the heart as a sacrifice to love love recompenses the adorers. – Khalil Gibran
Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love. – Khalil Gibran
I think that every child grows up with the ideas that what we are given, is our society.

Sometimes that questioning leads to something more. – Alice Englert
