Kahlil Gibran: on marriage

 

 My mother:  Live life as if you had a brain.

                     If you can't say anything nice, it's usually
                    better to not say anything at all.

                     Think of jealously and self-pity as 
                     corrosive acids: if you hold them inside
                     your heart, you will be the one to suffer.
                    Try to let them go, and if you can, replace
                    them with love.

 

 My father:  Exercise is your passport to the future.

                  Loving criticism is a great gift: 
                  it enables you to see yourself through the
                  mirror of another's
eyes.

                  A strong man never replies to unfair
                  criticism: doing so only lowers you to their
                  level.
