More quotes by 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
Beauty is truth's smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror.
Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore

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
To be outspoken is easy when you do not wait to speak the complete truth.
Rabindranath Tagore
The flower which is single need not envy the thorns that are numerous.
Rabindranath Tagore
When you have once taken up a responsibility, you must see it through.
Rabindranath Tagore
Love is not a mere impulse, it must contain truth, which is law.
Rabindranath Tagore
When I go from hence, let this be my parting word, that what I have seen is unsurpassable.
Rabindranath Tagore
What is Art? It is the response of man's creative soul to the call of the Real.
Rabindranath Tagore
Facts are many, but the truth is one.
Rabindranath Tagore
By unrighteousness man prospers, gains what appears desirable, conquer enemies, but perishes a the root.
