Kahlil Gibran: "Sulla conoscenza"..

E un uomo disse:

Parlaci della Conoscenza.

E lui rispose dicendo:

Il vostro cuore conosce nel silenzio i segreti dei giorni e delle notti.

Ma il vostro orecchio è assetato dal rumore di quanto il cuore conosce.

Vorreste esprimere ciò che avete sempre pensato.

Vorreste toccare con mano il corpo nudo dei vostri sogni.
