More quotes by Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

"No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies half asleep in the dawning of your knowledge."
"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."
"You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts."
"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."
"No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies half asleep in the dawning of your knowledge."
