More quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
Discipline divorced from wisdom is not true discipline, but merely the meaningless following of custom, which is only a disguise for stupidity.
Rabindranath Tagore
for we women are not only the deities of the household fire, but the flame of the soul itself.
Rabindranath Tagore
The smile that flickers on a baby’s lips when he sleeps- does anyone know where it was born? Yes, there is a rumor that a young pale beam of a crescent moon touched the edge of a vanishing autumn cloud, and there the smile was first born in the dream of a dew-washed morning.
Rabindranath Tagore
The water in a vessel is sparkling the water in the sea is dark. The small truth has words which are clear the great truth has great silence.
Rabindranath Tagore
To be constantly changing one's plans isn't decision at all-it's indecision.
Rabindranath Tagore
When I go from hence, let this be my parting word, that what I have seen is unsurpassable.
Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore
And, indeed, what little of beauty and peace is to be found in the societies of men is owing to the daily performance of small duties, not to big doings and fine talk.
Rabindranath Tagore
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
Man is a rough-hewn and woman a finished product.
Rabindranath Tagore
And joy is everywhere it is in the earth's green covering of grass in the blue serenity of the sky.
Rabindranath Tagore
You smiled and talked to me of nothing and I felt that for this I had been waiting long.
Rabindranath Tagore
The greed for fruit misses the flower.
Rabindranath Tagore
I do not love him because he is good, but because he is my child.
Rabindranath Tagore
My debts are large, my failures great, my shame secret and heavy yet I come to ask for my good, I quake in fear lest my prayer be granted.
Rabindranath Tagore
Man is immortal therefore he must die endlessly. For life is a creative idea it can only find itself in changing forms
Rabindranath Tagore
To find God, you must welcome everything.
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
He who is too busy doing good finds no time to be good.
Rabindranath Tagore
