More quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
My eyes have seen much, but they are not weary. My ears have heard much, but they thirst for more.
Rabindranath Tagore
Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death like autumn leaves.
Rabindranath Tagore
April, like a child, Writes hieroglyphs on dust with flowers, Wipes them away and forgets.
Rabindranath Tagore
Great suffering brings with it the power of great endurance. When sorrow is deepest all the forces of patience and courage are banded together to do their duty. So while we are cowards before petty troubles, great sorrows make us brave by rousing our truer manhood.
Rabindranath Tagore
To find God, you must welcome everything.
Rabindranath Tagore
Inspiration follows aspiration.
Rabindranath Tagore
These paper boats of mine are meant to dance on the ripples of hours, and not reach any destination.
Rabindranath Tagore
Love's over brimming mystery joins death and life. It has filled my cup of pain with joy.
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
I do not love him because he is good, but because he is my child.
Rabindranath Tagore
Once we dreamt that we were strangers. We wake up to find that we were dear to each other.
Rabindranath Tagore
The small wisdom is like water in a glass: clear, transparent, pure. The great wisdom is like the water in the sea: dark, mysterious, impenetrable.
Rabindranath Tagore
The water vessel, taken as a vessel only, raises the question, Why does it exist at all? Through its fitness of construction, it offers the apology for its existence. But where it is a work of beauty it has no question to answer it has nothing to do, but to be.
Rabindranath Tagore
No civilized society can thrive upon victims, whose humanity has been permanently mutilated.
Rabindranath Tagore
One who has never known the turbulence of life, in whom the petals of the mysterious flower within have never opened such a one may seem happy, may seem a saint, his single track mind may impress the multitude with its power - but he is ill equipped for life's true adventure into the infinite.
Rabindranath Tagore
Who are you, a hundred years from today, reading my poetry with curiosity?
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
Let not the hours pass by in the dark. Kindle the lamp of love with thy life.
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
Age considers youth ventures.
Rabindranath Tagore
