More quotes by 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
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
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
Those who have everything but thee, my God, laugh at those who have nothing but thyself.
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
By touching you may kill, by keeping away you may possess.
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
Gray hairs are signs of wisdom if you hold your tongue, speak and they are but hairs, as in the young.
Rabindranath Tagore
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
Only those of tranquil minds, and none else, can attain abiding joy, by realizing within their souls the Being who manifests one essence in a multiplicity of forms.
Rabindranath Tagore
From the grasses in the field to the stars in the sky, each one is doing just that and there is such profound peace and surpassing beauty in nature because none of these tries forcibly to transgress its limitations.
Rabindranath Tagore
Alas, why are my nights all thus lost? Ah, why do I ever miss his sight whose breath touches my sleep?
Rabindranath Tagore
In the world's audience hall, the simple blade of grass sits on the same carpet with the sunbeams, and the stars of midnight.
Rabindranath Tagore
In the mountain, stillness surges up to explore its own height In the lake, movement stands still to contemplate its own depth.
Rabindranath Tagore
No civilized society can thrive upon victims, whose humanity has been permanently mutilated.
Rabindranath Tagore
Where roads are made I lose my way.In the wide water, in the blue sky there is no line of a track.The pathway is hidden by the birds' wings, by the star-fires, by the flowers of the wayfaring seasons.And I ask my heart if its blood carries the wisdom of the unseen way.
Rabindranath Tagore
Poems On Love Love adorns itself it seeks to prove inward joy by outward beauty. Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom. Love is an endless mystery, for it has nothing else to explain it. Love's gift cannot be given, it waits to be accepted.
Rabindranath Tagore
It's far better to make people angry than to make them ashamed.
Rabindranath Tagore
Time is a wealth of change, but the clock in its parody makes it mere change and no wealth.
Rabindranath Tagore
Night's darkness is a bag that bursts with the gold of the dawn.
Rabindranath Tagore
