More quotes by Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

"Love one another, but make not a bond of love:Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls."
"When you part from your friend, you grieve not;For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, asthe mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain."
"And think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course."
"No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies half asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.The teacher who walks in the shadow of the temple, among his followers, gives not of his wisdom but rather of his faith and his lovingness.If he is indeed wise he does not bid you enter the house of his wisdom, but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind."
"He who wears his morality but as his best garment were better naked.The wind and the sun will tear no holes in his skin."
