She who reconciles the ill-matched threads Of her life, and weaves them gratefully Into a single cloth – It’s she who drives the loudmouths from the hall And clears it for a different celebration.

More quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
Let your beauty manifest itself without talking and calculation. You are silent. It says for you: I am. And comes in meaning thousandfold, comes at long last over everyone.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Live your questions now, and perhaps even without knowing it, you will live along some distant day into your answers.
Rainer Maria Rilke
The necessary thing is after all but this solitude, great inner solitude. Going into oneself for hours meeting no one - this one must be able to attain.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Swells, Marina? we ocean, depths, Marina? we sky!
Rainer Maria Rilke
The artist's experience lies so unbelievably close to the sexual, to its pain and its pleasure, that the two phenomena are really just different forms of one and the same longing and bliss.
Rainer Maria Rilke
a kind of memory that tells us that what we're now striving for was once nearer and truer and attached to us with infinite tenderness. Here all is distance, there it was breath. After the first home the second one seems draughty and strangely sexed.
Rainer Maria Rilke
I know of no other advice than this: Go within and scale the depths of your being from which your very life springs forth.
Rainer Maria Rilke
What is necessary, after all, is only this: solitude, vast inner solitude. To walk inside yourself and meet no one for hours-that is what you must be able to attain. To be solitary as you were when you were a child.
Rainer Maria Rilke
...a carefree letting go of oneself, not a caution, but a wise blindness.
Rainer Maria Rilke
... be indulgent toward those who ... are afraid of the aloneness that you trust.
Rainer Maria Rilke
I live my life in widening circles that reach out across the world.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Our being is continually undergoing and entering upon changes. ... We must, strictly speaking, at every moment give each other up and let each other go and not hold each other back.
Rainer Maria Rilke
The future must enter you long before it happens.
Rainer Maria Rilke
The flower bends when the wind wants it to, and you must become like that-that is, filled with deep # trust .
Rainer Maria Rilke
Nearly everything that matters is a challenge, and everything matters.
Rainer Maria Rilke
I feel it now: there's a power in me to grasp and give shape to my world I know that nothing has ever been real without my beholding it. All becoming has need me.
Rainer Maria Rilke
For beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror which we are barely able to endure, and it amazes us so, because it serenely disdains to destroy us. Every angel is terrible.
Rainer Maria Rilke
A work of art is good if it has arisen out of necessity. That is the only way one can judge it.
Rainer Maria Rilke
We see the brightness of a new page where everything yet can happen.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Love consists of this: two solitudes that meet, protect and great each other.
Rainer Maria Rilke
