“The thought of being a creator, of begetting and forming” is nothing without its continual great confirmation and realization in the world, nothing without the thousandfold assent from things and animals,—and its enjoyment is so indescribably beautiful and rich only because it is full of inherited memories of the begetting and bearing of millions.”

“tis a poor way to make a child love study by beginning with the things which he naturally dislikes.”
― William Joseph Long, English Literature (Spoken English & Grammar): William J. Long Explores the Richness of English Literary Tradition by William J. Long

“I would finally just like to advise you to grow through your development quietly and seriously; you can interrupt it in no more violent manner than by looking outwards, and expecting answer from outside to questions which perhaps only your innermost feeling in your most silent hour can answer.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

“do not think that the man who seeks to comfort you lives untroubled among the simple and quiet words which sometimes do you good. His life has much hardship and sadness and lags far behind you. If it were otherwise, he could never have found those words.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
