The greatest distance in this World is not that between living and death, it is when I am just before you, and you don't know that I Love You.

Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Come oh come ye tea-thirsty restless ones -- the kettle boils, bubbles and sings, musically.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
when you came you cried and everybody smiled with joy when you go smile and let the world cry for you.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Life itself is a strange mixture. We have to take it as it is, try to understand it, and then to better it.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
These paper boats of mine are meant to dance on the ripples of hours, and not reach any destination.
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
Image
The meaning of the living words that come out of the experiences of great hearts can never be exhausted by any one system of logical interpretation. They have to be endlessly explained by the commentaries of individual lives, and they gain an added mystery in each new revelation.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
If you want to know India, study Vivekananda. In him everything is positive and nothing negative.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
I'm lost in the middle of my birthday. I want my friends, their touch, with the earth's last love. I will take life's final offering, I will take the last human blessing.
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
Image
Facts are many, but the truth is one.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Those who in this world have the courage to try and solve in their own lives new problems of life, are the ones who raise society to greatness.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Those who draw their sustenance from science are blessed. It is for me to only derive an occasional pleasure. This is nothing worthy of conceit, but I am indeed touched by the joys. This book is an ode to such joys, a digest of my collections from various sources.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Love is not a mere impulse, it must contain truth, which is law.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
We read the world wrong and say that it deceives us.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Once we dreamt that we were strangers. We wake up to find that we were dear to each other.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Let not the hours pass by in the dark. Kindle the lamp of love with thy life.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Great suffering brings with it the power of great endurance. When sorrow is deepest all the forces of patience and courage are banded together to do their duty. So while we are cowards before petty troubles, great sorrows make us brave by rousing our truer manhood.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Only in silence I find myself. Life in the city is so hectic that you lose the right perspective. It's important to know that our biggest resources are in our heart.
