"If it were not for guests all..." - Quote by Khalil Gibran

“The teacher who is indeed wise does not bid you to enter the house of his wisdom but rather leads you to the threshold of your mind.”

“You shall be held down by the chains of your own judgment.”

“Let your best be for your friend.”

“To be in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating.”

“Of the twelve companions of Thorin, ten remained. Fili and Kili had fallen defending him with shield and body, for he was their mother’s elder brother.”

“I would not wish any companion in the world but you.”

“A painter told me that nobody could draw a tree without in some sort becoming a tree; or draw a child by studying the outlines of its form merely but by watching for a time his motions and plays, the painter enters into his nature and can then draw him at every attitude.”

“I feel that I speak the musical language.”

“My Friend is that one whom I can associate with my choicest thought.”
