    I was listening to BBC today and it was the life history of Khalil Gibran, very fascinating story and was also taken aback about his love story with his girlfriend Mary who I thought was a amazing loving,caring and also a honest women. Can we find any women of that type at this present time, I don`t think so. Beautiful spiritual radio programme. Thank you BBC

    Coming from the same background as Khalil Gebran my parents taught me alot about him. He is a great writer and poet. Nice lense!

    My favorite, if I must select only one: ?Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.?

    I've just bookmarked your website...I'll be back to look at it more then my "it's time to get ready for work" alarm is not ringing like it is right now. Thank you!

    Both my mother and father have made their transition, as well as my grandparents. My brother is gone and most, but not all, of my Aunts and Uncles are gone. The Poem "On Death" in "The Prophet" has sustained me through all. I even pulled out my copy when I had to put my dog, Lucy, down. A great lens on Khalil Gibran. Thank you..

    I was given the book the Prophet by a dear friend who was leaving to find herself, it brought me a lot of comfort and I found I loved going to that book for comfort and knowledge. I have not read it in years and NOW, I must go find it and read it again!. Thanks.

    I love Gibran's love of God :) Thank you for sharing this article. We have a very similar mission!

    I have not read the prophet since I was in high school... that's a very long time ago. I can see that it would be a good read at this stage of my life.

    My favorite is The Broken Wings " Love is the only freedom in the world because it so elevates the spirit that the laws of humanity and the phenomena of nature do not alter its course"

    Thank you for sharing this about the Prophet. I have been reading these books for many years and they always seem new each time.

    I remember reading 'The Prophet' years ago in college. I may have to pick it up again soon.
  • Frankster Sep 19, 2010 @ 6:18 am | delete
    I have carted "The Prophet" around with me for 30+ years. My favorite of all is the "Your children are not your children." I love every line of it. Thank you for sharing this book and reminding me it's time to read it again! Bear hugs, Frankster

    Pleasure is the freedom song
    But it is not the freedom.
    It is the blossoming of your desires
    But it is not the fruit

    I don't know what happened to my copy of The Prophet but I need to get another. I received a lot of inspiration from it. 5*
  • lasertek Feb 28, 2010 @ 7:56 pm | delete
    I have always like Your Children are Not Your Children quote but I never knew much of the author. This is a great a lens about him. Hope you could add some more quotes. 5*

    A best friend over the years. I liked the vinyl record that Richard Harris made in the 70s on the Prophet. A rare piece of inspiration.

    I love the children quote - has been one of my favorites since childhood when I copied it several times and posted it around the house :)
  • DavidLove Nov 18, 2009 @ 12:40 pm | delete
    Excellent lens. The children quote is really fantastic. Why didn't my parents read that :-(.
  • KathyMcGraw Nov 1, 2009 @ 12:11 am | delete
    Growing up I must have read the Prophet hundreds of times, and the one on Children has always been one of my favorites. Really enjoyed this lens.

    I first knew of him in 1966, when he was very popular, but lost track Thanks, stars to you.
  • Joan4 Nov 27, 2008 @ 7:47 am | delete
    The Prophet is one of my favorites. and the "children are not your children" is a quote I have learned -over the years- to live by. Great wisdom in that! and a hard lesson to learn. Thank you for this lens. A wonderful way to start the day!

    This is a good book. I have had it since I was a teenager.

    Thanks for stopping by "The farm"

    What a great lens I like to read The Prophet
  • 0ctavias0fferings Sep 16, 2008 @ 8:49 am | delete
    I first read Khalil Gibran in 1970 / 71 and the two books I bought then have travelled with me ever since.
    Of course, my life has taken many twists and turns and they are now in a very fragile state but there is always inspiration in the pages.
  • a_willow Aug 19, 2008 @ 2:49 pm | delete
    I simply love that quote from Prophet about children. I find it so truthful!
  • _Anthony_ Jul 15, 2008 @ 12:15 pm | delete
    I have been meaning to read this book forever! Thank you for this lens. Its very well done and informative.

    "Your children are not your children". We used this as a reading at all of our children's baptismal ceremonies.

    I totally forgot about The Prophet. A good friend (now deceased) game me a lovely edition as a gift ages ago. I think it's time to dig it out and revisit it. Thank you for the reminder.
