Clouds come floating into my life from other days no longer to shed rain or usher storm but to give colour to my sunset sky.

More quotes by Rabindranath Tagore

Image
A teacher can never truly teach unless he is still learning himself. A lamp can never light another lamp unless it continues to burn its own flame. The teacher who has come to the end of his subject, who has no living traffic with his knowledge but merely repeats his lesson to his students, can only load their minds, he cannot quicken them.

These paper boats of mine are meant to dance on the ripples of hours, and not reach any destination.
Rabindranath Tagore

In desperate hope I go and search for her in all the corners of my house. I find her not. My house is small and what once has gone from it can never be regained. But infinite is thy mansion, my lord, and seeking her I have come to thy door.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Those who are near me do not know that you are nearer to me than they are Those who speak to me do not know that my heart is full with your unspoken words Those who crowd in my path do not know that I am walking alone with you Those who love me do not know that their love brings you to my heart

No civilized society can thrive upon victims, whose humanity has been permanently mutilated.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
The water vessel, taken as a vessel only, raises the question, Why does it exist at all? Through its fitness of construction, it offers the apology for its existence. But where it is a work of beauty it has no question to answer it has nothing to do, but to be.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
And joy is everywhere it is in the earth's green covering of grass in the blue serenity of the sky.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
We try to realize the essential unity of the world with the conscious soul of man we learn to perceive the unity held together by the one Eternal Spirit, whose power creates the earth, the sky, and the stars, and at the same time irradiates our mind.
Rabindranath Tagore

A lamp can only light another lamp when it continues to burn in its own flame.

Time is a wealth of change, but the clock in its parody makes it mere change and no wealth.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
The child ever dwells in the mystery of ageless time,unobscured by the dust of history.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Power said to the world, You are mine. The world kept it prisoner on her throne. Love said to the world, I am thine. The world gave it the freedom of her house.
Rabindranath Tagore

Thou hast brought the distant near and made a brother of the stranger.

Life itself is a strange mixture. We have to take it as it is, try to understand it, and then to better it.

This I know... That often when I sang, and drummed, and danced, I found my eternity.
