More quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
Do not, do not, do not books for ever hammer at people like perpetual bells? When, between two books, silent sky appears: be glad
Rainer Maria Rilke
Fame is finally only the sum total of all the misunderstanding that can gather around a new name.
Rainer Maria Rilke
I am so glad you are here. It helps me realize how beautiful my world is.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Every happiness is the child of a separation it did not think it could survive.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Who has not sat before his own heart's curtain? It lifts: and the scenery is falling apart.
Rainer Maria Rilke
My art is representational by choice....if the art of painting is to survive, it must describe and express people, their lives and times. It must communicate.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Let life happen to you. Believe me: life is in the right, always.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Weren't you always distracted by expectation, as if every event announced a beloved? (Where can you find a place to keep her, with all the huge strange thoughts inside you going and coming and often staying all night.).
Rainer Maria Rilke
Love and death are the great gifts that are given to us mostly they are passed on unopened.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Trees do not force their sap, nor does the flower push its bloom.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Young people, who are beginners in everything, cannot yet know love: they have to learn it.
Rainer Maria Rilke
No one can advise or help you - no one. There is only one thing you should do. Go into yourself. Search for the reason that bids you write, find out wether it spreading out its root in the deepest places of your heart...Delve into yourself for a deep answer
Rainer Maria Rilke
I want to unfold. Let no place in me hold itself closed, for where I am closed, I am false.
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
the longer I live, the more necessary it seems to me to endure, to copy the whole dictation of existence to the end, for it might be that only the last sentence contains that small, perhaps inconspicuous word through which all laboriously learned and not understood orients itself toward glorious sense.
Rainer Maria Rilke
And you should not let yourself be confused in your solitude by the fact that there is something in you that wants to move out of it.
Rainer Maria Rilke
What keeps you from... living your life as a painful and lovely day in the history of a great pregnancy?
Rainer Maria Rilke
We must assume our existence as broadly as we in any way can everything, even the unheard - of, must be possible in it. This is at bottom the only courage that is demanded of us: to have courage for the most strange, the most inexplicable.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Our deepest fears are like dragons, guarding our deepest treasure.
Rainer Maria Rilke
What we fight with is so small, and when we win, it makes us small. What we want is to be defeated, decisively, by successively greater things
Rainer Maria Rilke
