When the heat and motion of blind impulses and passions distract it on all sides, we can neither give nor receive anything truly. But when we find our centre in our soul by the power of self-restraint, by the force that harmonizes all warring element
Rabindranath Tagore
The truth comes as conqueror only because we have lost the art of receiving it as guest.
Rabindranath Tagore
The potentiality of perfection outweighs actual contradictions... Existence in itself is here to prove that it cannot be an evil.
Rabindranath Tagore
Beauty is simply reality seen with the eyes of love
Rabindranath Tagore
It is no easy task to lead men. But it is easy enough to drive them.
Rabindranath Tagore
The danger inherent in all force grows stronger when it is likely to gain success, for then it becomes temptation.
