Say not, “I have found the truth,” but

rather, “I have found a truth.”

Say not, “I have found the path of the soul.”

Say rather, “I have met the soul walking

upon my path.”

For the soul walks upon all paths.

The soul walks not upon a line, neither

does it grow like a reed.

The soul unfolds itself, like a lotus of

countless petals.

~ Kahlil Gibran

On Pleasure

For to the bee a flower is a fountain of life,

And to the flower a bee is a messenger of love,

And to both, bee and flower, the giving and

the receiving of pleasure is a need and an ecstasy.

~ Kahlil Gibran
