Kahlil GibranSpeak not of peoples and laws and Kingdoms, for the whole earth is My birthplace and all humans are My brothers.
About This Quote
Mother Earth, the ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead, describes her as a goddess who has no parents or children. She is one with all living things and all people. She is the creator of every creature and she is the protector of every man. Mother Earth is a nurturing mother who values all life. In this poem, Mandelas says, "Speak not of peoples and laws and kingdoms," because these belong to others.
