Rainer Maria Rilke
“As if no one had ever tried before, try to say what you see and feel and love and lose.”
Rainer Maria Rilke

Rainer Maria Rilke
“Where something becomes extremely difficult and unbearable, there we also stand already quite near its transformation.”
Rainer Maria Rilke

Rainer Maria Rilke
“I am too alone in the world, and yet not alone enough
to make every moment holy.
I am too tiny in this world, and not tiny enough
just to lie before you like a thing,
shrewd and secretive.
I want my own will, and I want simply to be with my will,
as it goes toward action;
and in those quiet, sometimes hardly moving times,
when something is coming near,
I want to be with those who know secret things
or else alone.
I want to be a mirror for your whole body,
and I never want to be blind, or to be too old
to hold up your heavy and swaying picture.
I want to unfold.
I don’t want to stay folded anywhere,
because where I am folded, there I am a lie.
and I want my grasp of things to be
true before you. I want to describe myself
like a painting that I looked at
closely for a long time,
like a saying that I finally understood,
like the pitcher I use every day,
like the face of my mother,
like a ship
that carried me
through the wildest storm of all.”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Rilke's Book of Hours: Love Poems to God

Rainer Maria Rilke
“May what I do flow from me like a river, no forcing and no holding back, the way it is with children.”
Rainer Maria Rilke

Rainer Maria Rilke
“All emotions are pure which gather you and lift you up; that emotion is impure which seizes only one side of your being and so distorts you.”
Rainer Maria Rilke
