Quote from Kahlil Gibran:
You are good when you strive to give of yourself. Yet you are not evil when you seek gain for yourself. For when you strive for gain you are but a root that clings to the earth and sucks at her breast. Surely the fruit cannot say to the root, 'Be like me, ripe and full and ever giving of your abundance.' For to the fruit giving is a need as receiving is a need to the root.
Simimal Quotes:
Kahlil Gibran
We choose our joys and sorrows long before we experience them.
Stuart Wilde
You have a divine right to abundance, and if you are anything less than a millionaire, you haven't had your fair share."
Kahlil Gibran
Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
Kahlil Gibran
Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding. Even as the stone of the fruit must break, that its heart may stand in the sun, so must you know pain. And could you keep your heart in wonder at the daily miracles of your life, your pain would not seem less wondrous than your joy; And you would accept the seasons of your heart, even as you have always accepted the seasons that pass over your fields. And you would watch with serenity through the winters of your grief.
Kahlil Gibran
Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy. For if you break bread with indifference, you bake bitter bread that feeds but half a man's hunger. And if you grudge the crushing of grapes, your grudge distils a poison in the wine. And if you sing though as angels, and love not the singing, you muffle man's ears to the voices of the day and the voices of the night.
Kahlil Gibran
And ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
Kahlil Gibran
To understand the heart and the mind of a person, look not at what he has already achieved, but at what he aspires to.
The Upanishads
Out of abundance and still abundance remained.
Kahlil Gibran
Always you have been told that work is a curse and labour a misfortune. But I say to you that when you work you fulfil a part of earth's furthest dream, assigned to you when that dream was born, And in keeping yourself with labour you are in truth loving life, And to love life through labor is to be intimate with life's inmost secret.
St. Paul
God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance.
Susan Jeffers
When you operate from the Higher Self, you feel centered and abundant—in fact, overflowing. When you experience this abundance, your fears automatically disappear.
