“Love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.”
The Prophet • Kahlil Gibran
“Say not, "I have found the path of the soul." Say rather, "I have found 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.”
The Prophet • Kahlil Gibran
