Rabindranath TagorePatriotism cannot be our final spiritual shelter; my refuge is humanity. I will not buy glass for the price of diamonds, and I will never allow patriotism to triumph over humanity as long as I live.

Rabindranath TagoreBrahma was excessively sparing with earth, water, and fire.... The reckless expenditure of air and ether in his composition was amazing.
