More quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
Be brave, right through, and leave for the unknown.
Rabindranath Tagore
Poems On Time The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough. Time is a wealth of change, but the clock in its parody makes it mere change and no wealth. Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf.
Rabindranath Tagore
A teacher can never truly teach unless he is still learning himself. A lamp can never light another lamp unless it continues to burn its own flame. The teacher who has come to the end of his subject, who has no living traffic with his knowledge but merely repeats his lesson to his students, can only load their minds, he cannot quicken them.
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
Perhaps the crescent moon smiles in doubt at being told that it is a fragment awaiting perfection.
Rabindranath Tagore
Man's abiding happiness is not in getting anything but in giving himself up to what is greater than himself, to ideas which are larger than his individual life, the idea of his country, of humanity, of God.
Rabindranath Tagore
The flower which is single need not envy the thorns that are numerous.
Rabindranath Tagore
When I go from hence, let this be my parting word, that what I have seen is unsurpassable.
Rabindranath Tagore
Power said to the world, You are mine. The world kept it prisoner on her throne. Love said to the world, I am thine. The world gave it the freedom of her house.
Rabindranath Tagore
Once we dreamt that we were strangers. We wake up to find that we were dear to each other.
Rabindranath Tagore
We do not stray out of all words into the ever silent We do not raise our hands to the void for things beyond hope.
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
By plucking her petals, you do not gather the beauty of the flower.
Rabindranath Tagore
This I know... That often when I sang, and drummed, and danced, I found my eternity.
Rabindranath Tagore
Merely to exist is not enough.
Rabindranath Tagore
If life's journey be endless where is its goal? The answer is, it is everywhere. We are in a palace which has no end, but which we have reached. By exploring it and extending our relationship with it we are ever making it more and more our own.
Rabindranath Tagore
It's far better to make people angry than to make them ashamed.
Rabindranath Tagore
In desperate hope I go and search for her in all the corners of my house. I find her not. My house is small and what once has gone from it can never be regained. But infinite is thy mansion, my lord, and seeking her I have come to thy door.
Rabindranath Tagore
Let the splendor of diamond, pearl and ruby vanish? Only let this one teardrop, this Taj Mahal, glisten spotlessly bright on the cheek of time, forever and ever.
Rabindranath Tagore
The movement of life has its rest in its own music.
Rabindranath Tagore
