More quotes by 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
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
Let my thoughts come to you, when I am gone, like the afterglow of sunset at the margin of starry silence.

Rabindranath Tagore
The potentiality of perfection outweighs actual contradictions... Existence in itself is here to prove that it cannot be an evil.
Rabindranath Tagore
I leave no trace of wings in the air, but I am glad I have had my flight.
Rabindranath Tagore
If life's journey be endless where is its goal? The answer is, it is everywhere. We are in a palace which has no end, but which we have reached. By exploring it and extending our relationship with it we are ever making it more and more our own.
Rabindranath Tagore
The weak can be terrible because they try furiously to appear strong.
Rabindranath Tagore
Gray hairs are signs of wisdom if you hold your tongue, speak and they are but hairs, as in the young.
Rabindranath Tagore
Beauty is truth's smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror.
Rabindranath Tagore
Today I feel that I shall win through. I have come to the gateway of the simple I am now content to see things as they are. I have gained freedom myself I shall allow freedom to others. In my work will be my salvation.
Rabindranath Tagore
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
Memory, the priestess, kills the present and offers its heart to the shrine of the dead past.
