Summary: Read it once, and learn more about yourself...
Review: This classic of all time is a wonderful book and I would reccommend it to anyone who enjoys thinking their true being and how they interact with the world around them. Gibran is one of my favorite authors of all time and he explores ideas that are encountered in every day life. His unique ideas written into a beautiful poetic language help the reader to discover who they truely are

Summary: Poetic, Profound, and Brilliant
Review: Fabulous! This book touched me deeply, and each time I read it, I come away with some new insight. There is fast-food writing, and there is full-course writing. Fast-food writing is lightly read, quickly finished, and never read again. Full-course writing is a fine meal for the mind and Soul, and is chewed over, digested thoughtfully, and returned to again and again, like a fine restaurant. The Prophet is such a book, and continues to be an all-time favorite of mine

Summary: MidWest Book Review
Review: If I have ever read a book that is timeless, other than the Word of God, it would have to be this one. Although I may not have agreed with every word written, so many of the words of wisdom within these pages brought peace and comfort to me.
I read this book many, many years ago. I quoted from it at times and thought of it often. The words seemed to wrap themselves around your heart and spring out in times of need. There are not many books that can stake that claim, and I have read many.A classic in my opinion and a book that will never be outdated. Recommended.

Summary: A gift given with love for 25 years
Review: I have given this book to young missionaries and other special people in my life for 25 years. They almost without exception express profound gratitude for the wonderment that is "The Phrophet". As thier lives progress,understanding peace,joy,and personal wellness are the gifts so richly endowed by this master teacher to the reader. Each writing gains more meaning as life is experienced and enjoyed. I encourage you to read and share your best discoveries in this life with others. Each topic re-read, like "on Work" in this book sends you on a magical journey to the center of your soul. Sometimes just thinking and musing is all that is required to understand the gifts given. Kahil Gibran's "The Prophet" is a wonderful gift that lasts a lifetime.

Summary: The Prophet, was listener, and a teacher.
Review: I seem to have adopted much of my thought, and thinking, of Gibran when i seemed to listen to the silences, and the wisdoms of his words.
And he seemed to translate the sound ,and the silence within my mind, as if to say ...He was teaching me how to better listen, and know my heart, and my joy. I am a roman catholic, and even my priest had a hard time trying to listen and hear Gibran, and even more so A preacher seems to say Gibran esteems himself above Christ.
Wich i know Gibran ackwowledged Christ!!!!
May so he seemed to have memorized the psalms, at the age of eleven, went to the college of art in Paris, and seemed to have an understanding ,of Christ

Thank you Kahlil

Summary: I cried reading this book
Review: This book was recommended to me by a friend. What he told me of it is that, just as The Art of War, this is the book from which you take out whatever you want. What you find in it depends as much on the book as it does on you. It speaks of love, life and people in the most touching way ever. I have it in my handbag at all times. When I first read it, I cried. There is literally something mystical about it. I like to think I took a lot out of it. One of those books you should read again and again and again..
