Kahlil Gibran on virtue

Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.

No human relation gives one possession in another…every two souls are absolutely different. In friendship and in love, the two side by side raise hands together to find what one cannot reach alone.

Wisdom stands at the turn in the road and calls upon us publicly, but we consider it false and despise its adherents.

Love, while always forgiving of imperfections and mistakes, can never cease to will their removal.
