Rainer Maria Rilke

Rainer Maria Rilke
Here is the time for the sayable, here is its home. Speak and attest. More than ever the things we can live with are falling away, and ousting them, filling their place, a will with no image. Will beneath crusts which readily crack whenever the act inside swells and seeks new borders.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Lord, it is time. The summer was very big. Lay thy shadow on the sundials, and on the meadows let the winds go loose. Command the last fruits that they shall be full give them another two more southerly days, press them on to fulfillment and drive the last sweetiness into the heavenly wine.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Painting is something that takes place among the colors.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Who speaks of conquering? To endure is everything.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Take your well-disciplined strengths, stretch them between the two great opposing poles, because inside human beings is where God learns.
Rainer Maria Rilke
It seems to me that the only way one can be helpful is to extend one's hand to someone else involuntarily, and without ever knowing how useful this will be.
Rainer Maria Rilke
I want to be with those who know secret things or else alone.
Rainer Maria Rilke
What we call fate does not come into us from the outside, but emerges from us.
Rainer Maria Rilke
No great art has ever been made without the artist having known danger.
Rainer Maria Rilke
