Khalil Gibran Quotes, Men Quotes, Self Quotes

For life streams out of man's inner self and in no way from what surrounds him.

I always choose to look, as much as one can, at the supernatural not being something that exists outside of nature, but a deeper, fundamental heart of nature that perhaps humans have lost touch with. It's a more primal thing than perhaps we are attuned to in our modern, self-aware way of life.
