Khalil Gibran Quotes About Emptiness
-
And let your best be for your friend. If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also. For what is your friend that your should seek with him hours to kill? Seek with him always hours to live. For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness. And in the sweetness of friendship, let there be laughter, and the sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

Trees are poems the earth writes upon the sky, We fell them down and turn them into paper, That we may record our emptiness.
