The ProphetSenate, 2002 - 113 עמודים In a distant, timeless place, a mysterious prophet walks the sands. At the moment of his departure, he wishes to offer the people gifts, but he possesses nothing. The people gather round, each asks a question of the heart, and the man's wisdom is his gift. It is Gibran's gift to us, as well, for Gibran's prophet is rivaled in his wisdom only by the founders of the world's great religions. On the most basic topics--marriage, children, friendship, work, pleasure--his words have a power and lucidity that in another era would surely have provoked the description "divinely inspired."

... Man's needs change , but not his love , nor his desire that his love should satisfy his needs . Know , therefore , that from the greater silence I shall return . The mist that drifts away at dawn , leaving but 98 THE PROPHET.
