More quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
Life's aspirations come in the guise of children.
Rabindranath Tagore
This I know... That often when I sang, and drummed, and danced, I found my eternity.
Rabindranath Tagore
With begging and scrambling we find very little, but with being true to ourselves we find a great deal more.
Rabindranath Tagore
Love gives beauty to everything it touches.
Rabindranath Tagore
Some day I shall sing to thee in the sunrise of some other world, I have seen thee before in the light of the earth, in the love of man.
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
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
Facts are many, but the truth is one.
Rabindranath Tagore
Do not say, 'It is morning,' and dismiss it with a name of yesterday. See it for the first time as a newborn child that has no name.
Rabindranath Tagore
We do not want nowadays temples of worship and outward rites and ceremonies. What we really want is an Asram. We want a place where the beauty of nature and the noblest pursuits of man are in a sweet harmony.
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
Man's freedom is never in being saved from troubles, but it is the freedom to take trouble for his own good, to make the trouble an element in his joy.
Rabindranath Tagore
The tragedy of human life consists in our vain attempts to stretch the limits of things which can never become unlimited, to reach the infinite by absurdly adding to the rungs of the ladder of the finite.
Rabindranath Tagore
For every child that is born, it brings with it the hope that God is not yet disappointed with man.
Rabindranath Tagore
I do not love him because he is good, but because he is my child.
Rabindranath Tagore
We live in the world when we love it.
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
My eyes have seen much, but they are not weary. My ears have heard much, but they thirst for more.
Rabindranath Tagore
Our creation is the modification of relationship.
Rabindranath Tagore
No civilized society can thrive upon victims, whose humanity has been permanently mutilated.
Rabindranath Tagore
