The flower fades and dies but he who wears the flower has not to mourn for it for ever.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
We are like newborn children, Our power is the power to grow.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Gray hairs are signs of wisdom if you hold your tongue, speak and they are but hairs, as in the young.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Our scientific world is our world of reasoning. It has its greatness and uses and attractions. We are ready to pay homage due to it. But when it claims to have discovered the real world for us and laughs at the worlds of all simple-minded men, then we must say it is like a general grown intoxicated with his power, usurping the throne of his king
Rabindranath Tagore

Night's darkness is a bag that bursts with the gold of the dawn.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
The truth comes as conqueror only because we have lost the art of receiving it as guest.

Come oh come ye tea-thirsty restless ones -- the kettle boils, bubbles and sings, musically.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
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
Image
For the current of our spiritual life creeds, rituals and channels that may thwart or help, according to their fixity or openness. When a symbol or spiritual idea becomes rigidly elaborate in its construction, it supplants the idea which it should support.
Rabindranath Tagore

Love gives beauty to everything it touches.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Languages are jealous sovereigns, and passports are rarely allowed for travellers to cross their strictly guarded borders.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
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
Image
If God had so wished, he would have made all Indians speak with one language ... the unity of India has been and shall always be a unity in diversity.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
I've travelled all around the world to see the rivers and the mountains, and I've spent a lot of money. I have gone to great lengths, I have seen everything, but I forgot to see just outside my house a dewdrop on a little blade of grass, a dewdrop which reflects in its convexity the whole universe around you.
Rabindranath Tagore

Emancipation from the bondage of the soil is no freedom for the tree.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Life finds its wealth by the claims of the world, and its worth by the claims of love.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Inspiration follows aspiration.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Everything comes to us that belongs to us if we create the capacity to receive it.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
If someone smells a flower and says he does not understand, the reply to him is: there is nothing to understand, it is only a scent. If he persists, saying: that I know, but what does it all mean? Then one has either to change the subject, or make it more abstruse by saying that the scent is the shape which the universal joy takes in the flower.
