More From Khalil Gibran

If the lost word is lost, if the spent word is spent if the unheard, unspoken word is unspoken, unheard; still is the spoken word, the word unheard, the word without a word, the word within the world and for the world; and the light shone in the darkness and against the word the unstilled world still whirled about the center of the silent word. oh my people, what have i done unto thee. where shall the word be found, where shall the word resound? not here, there is not enough silence

I tried to concentrate on the angel's voice instead. "bella, please! bella, listen to me, please, please, please, bella, please!" he begged. yes, i wanted to say. anything. but i couldn't find my lips. "carlisle!" the angel called, agony in his perfect voice. "bella, bella, no, oh please, no, no!" and the angel was sobbing tearless, broken sobs. the angel shouldn't weep, it was wrong. i tried to find him, to tell him everything was fine, but the water was so deep, it was pressing on me, and i couldn't breathe.

The authorities teach that next to the first emanation, which is the son coming out of the father, the angels are most like god. and it may well be true, for the soul at its highest is formed like god, but an angel gives a closer idea of him. that is all an angel is: an idea of god. for this reason the angel was sent to the soul, so that the soul might be re-formed by it, to be the divine idea by which it was first conceived.

Praise the name of baseball. the word will set captives free. the word will open the eyes of the blind. the word will raise the dead. have you the word of baseball living inside you? has the word of baseball become part of you? do you live it, play it, digest it, forever? let an old man tell you to make the word of baseball your life. walk into the world and speak of baseball. let the word flow through you like water, so that it may quicken the thirst of your fellow man.

Each of those churches shows certain books, which they call revelation, or the word of god. the jews say that their word of god was given by god to moses face to face; the christians say, that their word of god came by divine inspiration; and the turks say, that their word of god (the koran) was brought by an angel from heaven. each of those churches accuses the other of unbelief; and, for my own part, i disbelieve them all.
