"SAID A SHEET OF SNOW-WHITE PAPER…" Khalil Gibran

SAID A SHEET of snow-white paper, “Pure was I created and pure will I remain for ever. I would rather be burnt and turn to white ashes than suffer darkness to touch me or the unclean to come near me.”

The ink-bottle heard what the paper was saying, and it laughed in its dark heart; but it never dared to approach her.  And the multicolored pencils heard her also, and they too never came near her.

And the snow-white sheet of paper did remain pure and chaste for ever - pure and chaste - and empty.

From The Forerunner by Khalil Gibran
