More quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
It's far better to make people angry than to make them ashamed.
Rabindranath Tagore
Where roads are made I lose my way.In the wide water, in the blue sky there is no line of a track.The pathway is hidden by the birds' wings, by the star-fires, by the flowers of the wayfaring seasons.And I ask my heart if its blood carries the wisdom of the unseen way.
Rabindranath Tagore
You have given me Your love, filling the world with Your gifts.
Rabindranath Tagore
I will sit in the pupil of your eyes and that will carry your sight into the heart of the things
Rabindranath Tagore
There is no next after you are dead and gone from your own world.
Rabindranath Tagore
The night kissed the fading day With a whisper: I am death, your mother, From me you will get new birth.
Rabindranath Tagore
Our scientific world is our world of reasoning. It has its greatness and uses and attractions. We are ready to pay homage due to it. But when it claims to have discovered the real world for us and laughs at the worlds of all simple-minded men, then we must say it is like a general grown intoxicated with his power, usurping the throne of his king
Rabindranath Tagore
Poems On Time The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough. Time is a wealth of change, but the clock in its parody makes it mere change and no wealth. Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf.
Rabindranath Tagore
We do not want nowadays temples of worship and outward rites and ceremonies. What we really want is an Asram. We want a place where the beauty of nature and the noblest pursuits of man are in a sweet harmony.
Rabindranath Tagore
for we women are not only the deities of the household fire, but the flame of the soul itself.
Rabindranath Tagore
Emancipation from the bondage of the soil is no freedom for the tree.
Rabindranath Tagore
My heart, the bird of the wilderness, has found its sky in your eyes. They are the cradle of the morning, they are the kingdom of the stars. My songs are lost in their depths. Let me but soar in that sky, in its lonely immensity. Let me but cleave its clouds and spread wings in its sunshine.
Rabindranath Tagore
The birth and death of leaves is part of that greater cycle that moves among the stars.
Rabindranath Tagore
No civilized society can thrive upon victims, whose humanity has been permanently mutilated.
Rabindranath Tagore
Those who own much have much to fear.
Rabindranath Tagore
You smiled and talked to me of nothing and I felt that for this I had been waiting long.
Rabindranath Tagore
Death is not extinguishing the light it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.
Rabindranath Tagore
Everything comes to us that belongs to us if we create the capacity to receive it.
Rabindranath Tagore
The water in a vessel is sparkling the water in the sea is dark. The small truth has words which are clear the great truth has great silence.
Rabindranath Tagore
The problem is not how to wipe out all differences, but how to unite with all differences intact.
Rabindranath Tagore
