Life is perpetually creative because it contains in itself that surplus which ever overflows the boundaries of the immediate time and space, restlessly pursuing its adventure of expression in the varied forms of self-realization.

More quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
The song I came to sing remains unsung to this day. I have spent my days in stringing and in unstringing my instrument. The time has not come true, the words have not been rightly set only there is the agony of wishing in my heart . . .
Rabindranath Tagore
Death belongs to life as birth does The walk is in the raising of the foot as in the laying of it down

I leave no trace of wings in the air, but I am glad I have had my flight.
Rabindranath Tagore
Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death like autumn leaves.
Rabindranath Tagore
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
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
I will sit in the pupil of your eyes and that will carry your sight into the heart of the things
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
With begging and scrambling we find very little, but with being true to ourselves we find a great deal more.
Rabindranath Tagore
In desperate hope I go and search for her in all the corners of my house. I find her not. My house is small and what once has gone from it can never be regained. But infinite is thy mansion, my lord, and seeking her I have come to thy door.
Rabindranath Tagore
Religion, like poetry, is not a mere idea, it is expression. The self-expression of God is in the endless variety of creation and our attitude toward the Infinite Being must also in its expression have a variety of individuality ceaseless and unendi.
Rabindranath Tagore
Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
Rabindranath Tagore
Only in love are unity and duality not in conflict.
Rabindranath Tagore
We manage to swallow flesh, only because we do not think of the cruel and sinful thing we do.
Rabindranath Tagore
Those who own much have much to fear.
Rabindranath Tagore
... let us unite, not in spite of our differences, but through them. For differences can never be wiped away, and life would be so much the poorer without them. Let all human races keep their own personalities, and yet come together, not in a uniformity that is dead, but in a unity that is living.
Rabindranath Tagore
The stars are not afraid to appear like fireflies.
Rabindranath Tagore
Death is turning out the lamp because the dawn has appeared.
Rabindranath Tagore
Man is immortal therefore he must die endlessly. For life is a creative idea it can only find itself in changing forms
