DREAMS (c)
dreams by Paris

WHAT IS TIME?
You would measure time the measure-less and the immeasurable.
You would adjust your conduct and even direct the course of your spirit
according to the hours and the seasons.
Of time you would make a stream upon whose bank you would sit and watch its flowing.
Kahlil Gibran 1883-1931

Eternal Friends (c)
eternal friends print by maxfield Parrish

WHAT IS FRIENDSHIP?
Your friend is your needs answered.
She is your field which you sow and love and reapwith thanksgiving.
For without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires,
all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed.
For what is your friend that you should seek her with hours to kill?
Seek her always with hours to live.
For it is your friend to fill your need, but not your emptiness.
Kahil Gibram

PLEASURE(c)

Paris garden art prints by Paris artists
What is pleasure?
Pleasure is a freedom-song: But it is not feedom. It is the blossoming of your desires,
but it is not their fruit.
It is a depth calling unto a height, but it is not the deep nor the high,
It is the caged taking wing, but it is not space encompassed.
Go to your fields and your gardens, and you shall learn that
it is the pleasure of the bee to gather honey of the flower,
but it is also the pleas-ure of the flower to yield to the bee.
For to the bee a flower is a fountain of life, a
nd to the flower a bee is a messenger of love, and to both bee and flower the giving and the receiving of pleasure is a need and an ectasy.

Kahlil Gibran
