More quotes by 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
I will sit in the pupil of your eyes and that will carry your sight into the heart of the things
Rabindranath Tagore
And, indeed, what little of beauty and peace is to be found in the societies of men is owing to the daily performance of small duties, not to big doings and fine talk.
Rabindranath Tagore
When we accept any discipline for ourselves, we try to avoid everything except that which is necessary for our purpose it is this purposefulness, which belongs to the adult mind, that we force upon school children. We say, Never keep your mind aler.
Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore
He who wants to do good knocks at the gate: he who loves finds the door open.
Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore
I am restless. I am athirst for faraway things. My soul goes out in a longing to touch the skirt of the dim distance. O Great Beyond, O the keen call of thy flute! I forget, I ever forget, that I have no wings to fly, that I am bound in this spot evermore.
Rabindranath Tagore
It sometimes strikes me how immensely fortunate I am that each day should take its place in my life, either reddened with the rising and setting sun, or refreshingly cool with deep, dark clouds, or blooming like a white flower in the moonlight. What untold wealth!
Rabindranath Tagore
The question and the cry 'Oh, where?' melt into tears of a thousand streams and deluge the world with the flood of the assurance 'I am!'
Rabindranath Tagore
We manage to swallow flesh, only because we do not think of the cruel and sinful thing we do.
Rabindranath Tagore
I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.
Rabindranath Tagore
If someone smells a flower and says he does not understand, the reply to him is: there is nothing to understand, it is only a scent. If he persists, saying: that I know, but what does it all mean? Then one has either to change the subject, or make it more abstruse by saying that the scent is the shape which the universal joy takes in the flower.
Rabindranath Tagore
Clouds come floating into my life from other days no longer to shed rain or usher storm but to give colour to my sunset sky.
Rabindranath Tagore
Other animals ran only when they had a reason, but the horse would run for no reason whatever, as if to run out of his own skin
Rabindranath Tagore
Life's aspirations come in the guise of children.
Rabindranath Tagore
For every child that is born, it brings with it the hope that God is not yet disappointed with man.
Rabindranath Tagore
