More quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
I'm lost in the middle of my birthday. I want my friends, their touch, with the earth's last love. I will take life's final offering, I will take the last human blessing.
Rabindranath Tagore
I never give answers. I lead on from one question to another. That is my leadership.
Rabindranath Tagore
The music of the far-away summer flutters around the Autumn seeking its former nest.
Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore
The potentiality of perfection outweighs actual contradictions... Existence in itself is here to prove that it cannot be an evil.
Rabindranath Tagore
Stray birds of summer come to my window to sing and fly away. And yellow leaves of autumn, which have no songs, flutter and fall there with a sigh.
Rabindranath Tagore
By unrighteousness man prospers, gains what appears desirable, conquer enemies, but perishes a the root.
Rabindranath Tagore
He who is too busy doing good finds no time to be good.
Rabindranath Tagore
It is no easy task to lead men. But it is easy enough to drive them.
Rabindranath Tagore
He who wants to do good knocks at the gate: he who loves finds the door open.
Rabindranath Tagore
The problem is not how to wipe out all differences, but how to unite with all differences intact.
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
Emancipation from the bondage of the soil is no freedom for the tree.
Rabindranath Tagore
