Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Do not despair if the answers don't come immediately. Some answers are only revealed with the passage of time.

Let life happen to you. Believe me: life is in the right, always.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Go into yourself and see how deep the place is from which your life flows.
Rainer Maria Rilke
If you trust in Nature, in the small Things that hardly anyone sees and that can so suddenly become huge, immeasurable if you have this love for what is humble and try very simply, as someone who serves, to win the confidence of what seems poor, then everything will become easier for you.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Trees do not force their sap, nor does the flower push its bloom.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Again and again in history some people wake up. They have no ground in the crowd and move to broader deeper laws. They carry strange customs with them and demand room for bold and audacious action. The future speaks ruthlessly through them. They change the world.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Spring has returned. The Earth is like a child that knows poems.
Rainer Maria Rilke
It wasn't his, it wasn't my fault, we both had nothing except patience, but Death has none. I saw him come (how meanly!) and I watched him as he took and took: none of it I could claim as mine.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Every intensification is good, if it is in your entire blood, if it isn't intoxication or muddiness, but joy which you can see into, clear to the bottom.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart.
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
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 good marriage is that in which each appoints the other guardian of his solitude
Rainer Maria Rilke
But you, divine poet, you sang on till the end as the swarm of rejected maenads attacked you, shrieking, you overpowered their noise with harmony, and from pure destruction arose your transfigured song.
Rainer Maria Rilke
I hold this to be the highest task for a bond between two people: that each protects the solitude of the other.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Love consists of this: two solitudes that meet, protect and great each other.
Rainer Maria Rilke
The highest form of love is to be the protector of another person’s solitude.
Rainer Maria Rilke
You must think that something is happening upon you, that life has not forgotten you, that it holds you in its hand it will not let you fall.
Rainer Maria Rilke
It seems to me that almost all our sadnesses are moments of tension, which we feel as paralysis because we no longer hear our astonished emotions living.
Rainer Maria Rilke
It is so often on the name of a misdeed that a life goes to pieces, not the nameless and personal action itself, which was perhaps a perfectly definite necessity of that life and would have been absorbed by it without effort.
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
