More quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
Deeply I go down into myself. My god is Dark and like a webbing made of a hundred roots that drink in silence.
Rainer Maria Rilke
You must change your life.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Your solitude will expand and become a place where you can live in the twilight, where the noise of other people passes, far in the distance.
Rainer Maria Rilke
I want to love the things as no one has thought to love them.
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
Be out of sync with your times for just one day, and you will see how much eternity you contain within you.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Our task is to take this earth so deeply and wholly into ourselves that it will resurrect within our being.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Love consists in this, that two solitudes protect and touch and greet each other.
Rainer Maria Rilke
only someone who is ready for everything, who doesn't exclude any experience, even the most incomprehensible, will live the relationship with another person as something alive and will himself sound the depths of his own being.
Rainer Maria Rilke
The creator must be a world for himself and must find everything in himself and in Nature, to whom his whole life is devoted.
Rainer Maria Rilke
And these things that keep alive on departure know that you praise them transient, they look to us, the most transient, to be their rescue. They want us to change them completely, in our invisible hearts, into -- O endlessly -- us! Whoever, finally, we may be.
Rainer Maria Rilke
We are unutterably alone essentially, especially in the things most intimate and most important.
Rainer Maria Rilke
More unsayable than all other things are works of art, those mysterious existences, whose life endures beside our own small, transitory life.
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
I beg you, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language.
Rainer Maria Rilke
There is only one journey. Going inside yourself.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Is not impermanence the very fragrance of our days?
Rainer Maria Rilke
If my devils are to leave me, I'm afraid my angels will take flight as well.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Do not be bewildered by the surfaces: in the depths all becomes law.
Rainer Maria Rilke
I never read anything concerning my work. I feel that criticism is a letter to the public which the author, since it is not directed to him, does not have to open and read.
Rainer Maria Rilke
