Do not linger to gather flowers to keep them, but walk on, for flowers will keep themselves blooming all your way.
Rabindranath Tagore
Leave out my name from the gift if it be a burden, but keep my song.
Rabindranath Tagore
Languages are jealous sovereigns, and passports are rarely allowed for travellers to cross their strictly guarded borders.
Rabindranath Tagore
Love adorns itself it seeks to prove inward joy by outward beauty
Rabindranath Tagore
Only those of tranquil minds, and none else, can attain abiding joy, by realizing within their souls the Being who manifests one essence in a multiplicity of forms.
Rabindranath Tagore
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
I never give answers. I lead on from one question to another. That is my leadership.
Rabindranath Tagore
The truth comes as conqueror only because we have lost the art of receiving it as guest.
Rabindranath Tagore
Man goes into the noisy crowd to drown his own clamour of silence.
Rabindranath Tagore
Whatever character our theology may ascribe to him, in reality God is the infinite ideal of Man, towards whom men move in their collective growth, with whom they seek their union of love as individuals, in whom they find their ideal of father, friend and beloved.
Rabindranath Tagore
Death belongs to life as birth does The walk is in the raising of the foot as in the laying of it down
Rabindranath Tagore
Age considers youth ventures.
Rabindranath Tagore
God finds himself by creating.
Rabindranath Tagore
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
We gain freedom when we have paid the full price.
Rabindranath Tagore
Death is not extinguishing the light it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.
Rabindranath Tagore
Clouds come floating into my life from other days no longer to shed rain or usher storm but to give colour to my sunset sky.
Rabindranath Tagore
Power said to the world, You are mine. The world kept it prisoner on her throne. Love said to the world, I am thine. The world gave it the freedom of her house.
Rabindranath Tagore
From the grasses in the field to the stars in the sky, each one is doing just that and there is such profound peace and surpassing beauty in nature because none of these tries forcibly to transgress its limitations.
Rabindranath Tagore
Those who own much have much to fear.
Rabindranath Tagore
