More quotes by 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
Once we dreamt that we were strangers. We wake up to find that we were dear to each other.
Rabindranath Tagore
Truth looks tawdry when she is overdressed.
Rabindranath Tagore
I am restless. I am athirst for faraway things. My soul goes out in a longing to touch the skirt of the dim distance. O Great Beyond, O the keen call of thy flute! I forget, I ever forget, that I have no wings to fly, that I am bound in this spot evermore.
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
Love is not a mere impulse, it must contain truth, which is law.
Rabindranath Tagore
We manage to swallow flesh, only because we do not think of the cruel and sinful thing we do.
Rabindranath Tagore
Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain but for the heart to conquer it.
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
The greatest distance in this World is not that between living and death, it is when I am just before you, and you don't know that I Love You.
Rabindranath Tagore
Wrong is wrong only when you are at liberty to choose.
Rabindranath Tagore
And joy is everywhere it is in the earth's green covering of grass in the blue serenity of the sky.
Rabindranath Tagore
Love's gift cannot be given, it waits to be accepted.
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
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
With begging and scrambling we find very little, but with being true to ourselves we find a great deal more.
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
The progress of our soul is like a perfect poem. It has an infinite idea which, once realised, makes all movements full of meaning and joy.
Rabindranath Tagore
No civilized society can thrive upon victims, whose humanity has been permanently mutilated.
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
