Rabindranath Tagore Quotes

Ours Is Truly A God-forsaken Country. Difficult, Indeed, Is It For Us To Maintain The Strength Of Will To Do. We Get No Help In Any Real Sense. There Is No One, Within Miles Of Us, In Converse With Whom We Might Gain An Accession Of Vitality. No One Near Seems To Be Thinking, Or Feeling, Or Working. Not A Soul Has Any Experience Of Big Striving, Or Of Really And Truly Living. They All Eat And Drink, Do Their Office Work, Smoke And Sleep, And Chatter Nonsensically. When They Touch Upon Emotion They Grow Sentimental, When They Reason They Are Childish. One Yearns For A Full-blooded, Sturdy, And Capable Personality; These Are All So Many Shadows, Flitting About, Out Of Touch With The World.
