6. “Peace, my heart, let the time for the parting be sweet. Let it not be a death but completeness. Let love melt into memory and pain into songs. Let the flight through the sky end in the folding of the wings over the nest. Let the last touch of your hands be gentle like the flower of the night. Stand still, O Beautiful End, for a moment, and say your last words in silence. I bow to you and hold up my lamp to light you on your way.”
Rabindranath Tagore

All these illusions will vanish, if we go down to the heart of.” Rabindranath Tagore Humanity, Peace, Reconciliation, Love, Social Critique
16. “All my work and all my dealings with people feel very easy. Actually, everything is simple. There is one straight road – if you open your eyes you can go along it. I don’t see the need to search for all sorts of clever shortcuts. Happiness and sadness are both on the road – there is no road that avoids them – but peace is found only on this road, nowhere else.” Rabindranath Tagore Simplicity, Peace, Happiness, Life Journey, Awareness
19. “They put spotlights on me standing there in the road in jeans and workclothes, with the big woeful rucksack a-back, and asked:-"Where are you going?" which is precisely what they asked me a year later under Television floodlights in New York, "Where are you going?"-Just as you cant explain to the police, you cant explain to society "Looking for peace.” Jack Kerouac Journey, Peace, Society, Self-discovery, Societal Expectations
