More quotes by Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore
Let the splendor of diamond, pearl and ruby vanish? Only let this one teardrop, this Taj Mahal, glisten spotlessly bright on the cheek of time, forever and ever.
Rabindranath Tagore
The stars are not afraid to appear like fireflies.
Rabindranath Tagore
Man is worse than an animal when he is an animal.
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
Man goes into the noisy crowd to drown his own clamour of silence.
Rabindranath Tagore
Perhaps the crescent moon smiles in doubt at being told that it is a fragment awaiting perfection.
Rabindranath Tagore
When we accept any discipline for ourselves, we try to avoid everything except that which is necessary for our purpose it is this purposefulness, which belongs to the adult mind, that we force upon school children. We say, Never keep your mind aler.
