Rainer Maria Rilke

"Who shows a child, just as they are? Who sets itin its constellation, and gives the measureof distance into its hand? Who makes a child's deathout of grey bread, that hardens, - or leaves itinside its round mouth like the coreof a shining apple? Killers areeasy to grasp. But this: death,the whole of death, before life,to hold it so softly, and not live in anger,cannot be expressed."

Courage

Quote_1.png
Rainer Maria Rilke
"Great sadnesses, they are the moments when something new has entered into us, something unknown; our feelings grow mute in shy perplexity, everything in us withdraws, a stillness comes, and the new, which no one knows, stands in the midst of it and is silent."

Creativity

Quote_1.png
Rainer Maria Rilke
"I have never been aware before how many faces there are. There are quantities of human beings, but there are many more faces, for each person has several."

Perception

Quote_1.png
Rainer Maria Rilke
"For one human being to love another; that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation."

Love

Quote_1.png
Rainer Maria Rilke
