The Prophet - Kahlil Gibran
A prophet has waited twelve years in a coastal town for the ship that will bear him back to his homeland, which he misses.
Why he is there, why he is waiting, how he knows what he knows, and who he is is a mystery. As he departs the townspeople gather to wish him well. A
local seeress who knows him best asks him to share his wisdom so that it will endure for generations to come.
So, he reveals his wisdom on love, birth, marriage, children, pain, talking, pleasure, death and so much more.
