I was just going through some old books and found this one that I got a long time ago at Waldenbooks on the bargain table, god I love buying cheap books, but anyways its called The Prophet by Kahill Gibran and I wanted to post some quotes from it so enjoy.

"How shall I go in peace and without sorrow?"
"You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give."
"The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain."
"Your clothes conceal much of your beauty, yet they hide not the unbeautiful."
"You delight in laying down laws, yet you delight more in breaking them."
"You shall be free indeed when your days are not without a care nor your nights without a want and a grief, but rather when these things girdle your life and yet you rise above them naked and unbound."
"Your soul is oftentimes a battlefield, upon which your reason and your judgment wage war against your passion and your appetite."
"Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding."
"Much of your pain is self-chosen."
"Your friend is your needs answered."
"And in much of your talking, thinking is half murdered."
"There are those among you who seek the talkative through fear of being alone."
"Yet the timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness. And knows that yesterday is but to-day's memory and to-morrow is to-day's dream."
"For what is evil but good tortured by its own hunger and thirst?"
"Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror. But you are eternity and you are the mirror."
"Your daily life is your temple and your religion."
"trust the dreams, for in them is hidden the gate of eternity."

Thanks for reading if you made it this far. Just figured I would put something that meant more then just pictures.
