Websterdavid3

“I am so afraid of people's words.They describe so distinctly everything:
And this they call dog and that they call house,
here the start and there the end.
I worry about their mockery with words,
they know everything, what will be, what was;
no mountain is still miraculous;
and their house and yard lead right up to God.
I want to warn and object: Let the things be!
I enjoy listening to the sound they are making.
But you always touch: and they hush and stand still.
That's how you kill.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke

“All the soarings of my mind begin in my blood.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke

“If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow”
― Rainer Maria Rilke

“Beauty was not simply something to behold; it was something one could do.”
― Toni Morrison, The Bluest Eye
