Winds Of HeavenFrom "The Prophet." "Born a Maronite, Gibran was influenced not only by his own religion but also by the Bahá’í Faith, Islam, and the mysticism of the Sufis," according to Wikipedia.

And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Love one another, but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
~ Kahlil Gibran ("The Prophet")

"Born a Maronite, Gibran was influenced not only by his own religion but also by the Bahá’í Faith, Islam, and the mysticism of the Sufis," according to Wikipedia. "His knowledge of Lebanon's bloody history, with its destructive factional struggles, strengthened his belief in the fundamental unity of religions, something which his parents exemplified by welcoming people of various religions in their home."

According to The Library of Congress, Kahlil Gibran's "The Prophet" entered the public domain in 2019. This quote is from the 1926 edition of Kahlil Gibran's 1923 work "The Prophet," published by Knopf and provided by Wikipedia as a download in various formats. Wikipedia also says this book "is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before Jan. 1, 1928."
