To find God, you must welcome everything.
Rabindranath Tagore
O Beauty, find thyself in love, not in the flattery of thy mirror.
Rabindranath Tagore
Great calm, generous detachment, selfless love, disinterested effort: these are what make for success in life. If you can find peace in yourself and can spread comfort around you, you will be happier than an empress.
Rabindranath Tagore
O master poet, I have sat down at thy feet. Only let me make my life simple and straight, like a flute of reed for thee to fill with music.
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
The most important lesson that man can learn from life, is not that there is pain in this world, but that it is possible for him to transmute it into joy.
Rabindranath Tagore
A mind all logic is like a knife all blade. It makes the hand bleed that uses it.
Rabindranath Tagore
We try to realize the essential unity of the world with the conscious soul of man we learn to perceive the unity held together by the one Eternal Spirit, whose power creates the earth, the sky, and the stars, and at the same time irradiates our mind.
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
We read the world wrong and say that it deceives us.
Rabindranath Tagore
A lamp can only light another lamp when it continues to burn in its own flame.
Rabindranath Tagore
Compliments win friends, honesty loses them.
Rabindranath Tagore
We are like newborn children, Our power is the power to grow.
Rabindranath Tagore
By touching you may kill, by keeping away you may possess.
Rabindranath Tagore
I do not love him because he is good, but because he is my child.
Rabindranath Tagore
A thorn can only be extracted if you know where it is.
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
The potentiality of perfection outweighs actual contradictions... Existence in itself is here to prove that it cannot be an evil.
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
Life's fulfillment finds constant obstacles in its path but those are necessary for the sake of its advance. The stream is saved from the sluggishness of its current by the perpetual opposition of the soil through which it must cut its way. The spirit of fight belongs to the genius of life.
Rabindranath Tagore
