War - the ordinary man's most convenient means of escaping from the ordinary.

Do not say, 'It is morning,' and dismiss it with a name of yesterday. See it for the first time as a newborn child that has no name.

Rabindranath Tagore

If you shut the door to all errors, truth will be shut out.

Rabindranath Tagore

Life is given to us, we earn it by giving it.
