“Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup.”

Permalink: Khalil Gibran

About this quote

Gibran places the line among his instructions on marriage, and it is a sentence about how two people can fill each other up without becoming one vessel. It is the shortest form of the argument he makes all through the chapter, that a shared life is fed by what each of you brings to it.
