"Books are the quietest and most constant of friends;
they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors,

and the most patient of teachers."

~ Charles W. Eliot

"Don't limit a child to your own learning,
for he was born in another time."

~ Rabindranath Tagore
(1861-1941)



Rabindranath Tagore*Rabindranath Tagore

Born: 7 May 1861 Calcutta, Bengal Presidency, British India
Died: 7 August 1941 (aged 80) Calcutta, Bengal Presidency, British India

An Indian Bengali polymath. He came from a wealthy family of intellects and creative people. He was a popular poet, novelist, musician, painter and playwright who reshaped Bengali literature and music in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. As the first Asian to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, Tagore was perhaps the most widely regarded Indian literary figure of all time. He was a mesmerizing representative of the Indian culture whose influence and popularity internationally perhaps could only be compared to that of Gandhi, whom Tagore named 'Mahatma' out of his deep admiration for him.

"Man has responsibility,
not power."

~ Native American Proverb



roverb; (from Latin: proverbium) is a simple and concrete saying popularly known and repeated, which expresses a truth, based on common sense or the practical experience of humanity. They are often metaphorical. A proverb that describes a basic rule of conduct may also be known as a maxim. If a proverb is distinguished by particularly good phrasing, it may be known as an aphorism.

Proverbs are often borrowed from similar languages and cultures, and sometimes come down to the present through more than one language. Both the Bible (Book of Proverbs) and medieval Latin have played a considerable role in distributing proverbs across Europe, although almost every culture has examples of its own. *Source
