More quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
Our creation is the modification of relationship.
Rabindranath Tagore
Life's fulfillment finds constant obstacles in its path but those are necessary for the sake of its advance. The stream is saved from the sluggishness of its current by the perpetual opposition of the soil through which it must cut its way. The spirit of fight belongs to the genius of life.
Rabindranath Tagore
A butterfly flitting from flower to flower ever remains mine, I lose the one that is netted by me.
Rabindranath Tagore
Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom.
Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore
I do not love him because he is good, but because he is my child.
Rabindranath Tagore
You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.

God seeks comrades and claims love, The devil seeks slaves and claims obedience.
Rabindranath Tagore
The greed for fruit misses the flower.
Rabindranath Tagore
Beauty is truth's smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror.
Rabindranath Tagore
The stars are not afraid to appear like fireflies.
Rabindranath Tagore
Do not linger to gather flowers to keep them, but walk on, for flowers will keep themselves blooming all your way.
Rabindranath Tagore
It's far better to make people angry than to make them ashamed.
Rabindranath Tagore
Love's over brimming mystery joins death and life. It has filled my cup of pain with joy.
Rabindranath Tagore
Some day I shall sing to thee in the sunrise of some other world, I have seen thee before in the light of the earth, in the love of man.
Rabindranath Tagore
