"Inspiration follows aspiration." – Rabindranath Tagore
About Rabindranath Tagore
Indian poet and philosopher Rabindranath Tagore, a contemporary of Mahatma Gandhi, was the first Asian to garner a Nobel Prize, which he won in 1913 for literature. He was born in India in 1861, the youngest of 13 children. He wrote poetry, stories, travelogues, dramas, essays, and songs. In the West, he was seen as a mystical figure and his fame faded with time, but his legacy lives on in India, where his work has become part of the fabric of the culture. He died in 1941.
This quote reminds me of how and why I decided to become writer.
But I have a busy day ahead, so I'll fill it in later when I can *ahem* write it at my leisure!
