Quotes from Kahlil Gibran

• 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.
  
  
• Wisdom ceases to be wisdom when it becomes too proud to weep, too grave to laugh, and too selfish to seek other than itself.
  
  
• Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry, the philosophy which does not laugh and the greatness which does not bow before children.
