The greed of gain has no time or limit to its capaciousness. Its one object is to produce and consume. It has pity neither for beautiful nature nor for living human beings. It is ruthlessly ready without a moment's hesitation to crush beauty and life out of them, molding them into money.
Rabindranath Tagore
Love's gift cannot be given, it waits to be accepted.
Rabindranath Tagore
God waits to win back his own flowers as gifts from man's hands.

Food for thought, as usual. The first quote is in step with where my own thinking has been of late.
Loved your post. I am a Bengali and I have read Tagore's writing in Bengali. I have often felt that his philosophies have not been translated well. Sometimes they sound a little forced and in the process lose their smooth flow that you find in his original work.
But this was simply great and very inspirational. Thank you.
Beautiful photos and thoughts.
