More quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
At the bottom no one in life can help anyone else in life this one experiences over and over in every conflict and every perplexity: that one is alone. That isn't as bad as it may first appear and again it is the best thing in life that each should have everything in himself his fate, his future, his whole expanse and world.
Rainer Maria Rilke
In the depths all becomes law.
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
Works of art are of an infinite solitude, and no means of approach is so useless as criticism. Only love can touch and hold them and be fair to them.
Rainer Maria Rilke
You must change your life.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Isn't it time that these most ancient sorrows of ours grew fruitful? Time that we tenderly loosed ourselves from the loved one, and, unsteadily, survived: the way the arrow, suddenly all vector, survives the string to be more than itself. For abiding is nowhere.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Painting is something that takes place among the colors.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Being an artist means, not reckoning and counting, but ripening like the tree which does not force its sap and stands confidence in the storms of spring without fear that after them may come no summer
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
In the night, I wish to speak with the angel to find out if she recognizes my eyes, if she will ask me: do you see Eden? And I’ll reply: Eden burns.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Animals see the unobstructed world with their whole eyes. But our eyes, turned back upon themselves, encircle and seek to snare the world, setting traps for freedom.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Be, in this immensity of night, the magic force at your sense's crossroad.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Joy is a marvelous increasing of what exists, a pure addition out of nothingness.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Earth, my dearest, oh believe me, you no longer need your springtimes to win me over...Unspeakably, I have belonged to you, from the flush.
Rainer Maria Rilke
To all that is used-up, and to all the muffled and dumb creatures in the world's full reserve, the unsayable sums, joyfully add yourself, and cancel the count.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Learn to love the questions themselves.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Our deepest fears are like dragons, guarding our deepest treasure.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Just keep going - no feeling is final.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Perhaps creating something is nothing but an act of profound remembrance.
Rainer Maria Rilke
