Lebanese writer Kahlil Gibran is remembered for his 1923 work “The Prophet,” a collection of fables in which a prophet speaking to a group of people offers wisdom on subjects including marriage, beauty, death, and more. When a seer of the city asks him to speak about love, the prophet responds with these words. His advice reminds us that cultivating love takes time and effort. Love well earned, Gibran seems to say, is love that will last.
