Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
My eyes have seen much, but they are not weary. My ears have heard much, but they thirst for more.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
There is no next after you are dead and gone from your own world.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
We do not stray out of all words into the ever silent We do not raise our hands to the void for things beyond hope.
Rabindranath Tagore

If you want to know India, study Vivekananda. In him everything is positive and nothing negative.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Let my love like sunlight surround you and yet give you illumined freedom.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain but for the heart to conquer it.
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.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
To be outspoken is easy when you do not wait to speak the complete truth.
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
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
The flower fades and dies but he who wears the flower has not to mourn for it for ever.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Whether joy or sorrow, pain or pleasure whatsoever may befall thee, accept it serenely with an unvanquished heart.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Love remains a secret even when spoken, for only a true lover truly knows that he is loved.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Truth looks tawdry when she is overdressed.

Saltwater heals, healing referring to its various forms tears, cleanses and heals the soul sweat, cleanses through labor the ocean, heals in all its forms.

O Woman, you are not merely the handiwork of God, but also of men these are ever endowing you with beauty from their own hearts ... You are one-half woman and one-half dream.
