Cibran, Yakın, Orta ve Uzak Doğu'nun geleneksel öğretilriyle Batı düşüncesini karşılaştırmış, bireysel ve toplumsal olgulara çeşitli sentezler getirmiştir. Yapıtlarında şiirsel bir anlatım kullanmış, doğu düşüncesini batı diliyle yazmıştır. Bu nedenle Cibran'ın eserlerini dinleyenler, bir bakıma peygamberlerin kitaplarını dinliyormuş izlenimine kapılırlar. Tıpkı kutsal kitaplardaki gibi yazım büyük önem taşır. Aforizmalarını sanki meydanlarda yüksek sesle okusunlar diye yazmış gibidir. Her kitapta kurgu aşağı yukarı aynıdır. Bir "öğreten" bir de ondan "öğrenenler" vardır. Konu da az çok aynıdır: Doğa, toplum ve insanoğlu.

Eschewing conventional courage and military might as primary deciding factors, The Art of War is characterised by a profoundly enlightened emphasis on moderation, imagination, good morale and scrupulous forward planning.
