Khalil Gibran Quotes:
Ocupation: Poet
Life: January 6, 1883 - April 10, 1931
Birthday: January 6
Death: April 10
Your joy is your sorrow unmasked. And the same well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears. And how else can it be? The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain. Is not the cup that holds your wine the very cup that was burned in the potter's oven? And is not the lute that soothes your spirit, the very wood that was hollowed with knives?
