"Our worst fault is our preoccupation with..." - Quote by Khalil Gibran

“Forgetfulness is a form of freedom.”

“Your life is an island separated from all other islands and continents. Regardless of how many boats you send to other shores or how many ships arrive upon your shores, you yourself are an island separated by its own pains, secluded in its happiness”

“They give that they may live, for to withhold is to perish.”

“Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves.”

“Failure is not a single, cataclysmic event. You don't fail overnight. Instead, failure is a few errors in judgement, repeated every day.”

“Men would bless you or curse you;The curse, a protest against failure,The blessing, a hymn of the hunterWho comes back from the hillsWith provision for his mate.”

“There are some people upon whom their very faults and failings sit gracefully; and there are others whose very excellencies and accomplishments do not become them.”

“In the intercourse of life, we please more by our faults than by our good qualities.”

“Most of our faults are more pardonable than the means we use to conceal them.”
