I had been taught that idolatry of the Nation is almost better than reverence for God. I have outgrown that, it is my conviction that we will truly gain our India by fighting against the education which teaches us that a country is greater than the ideals of humanity.
~ R. Tagore

“The touch of an infinite mystery passes over the trivial and the familiar, making it break out into ineffable music… The trees, the stars, and the blue hills ache with a meaning which can never be uttered in words.”
~ Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941)

...To keep still, and let the wreckage
of ourselves go,
let everything go, as the wave smashes us,
yet keep still, and hold
the tiny grain of something that no wave
can wash away,
not even the most massive wave
of destiny.
~ D.H. Lawrence (1885-1930), ‘Be Still.’
