When we are only victorious o...

When we are only victorious over small things, it leaves us feeling small.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

And you should not let yourse...

And you should not let yourself be confused in your solitude by the fact that there is something in you that wants to move out of it.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

Lord, it is time. The summer ...

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 541 quotes

I feel it now: there's a powe...

I feel it now: there's a power in me to grasp and give shape to my world I know that nothing has ever been real without my beholding it. All becoming has need me.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

No, we don't accomplish our l...

No, we don't accomplish our love in a single year as the flowers do; an immemorial sap flows up through our arms when we love. Dear girl, this: that we loved, inside us, not One who would someday appear, but seething multitudes; not just a single child, but also the fathers lying in our depths like fallen mountains; also the dried-up riverbeds of ancient mothers-;also the whole soundless landscape under the clouded or clear sky of its destiny -; all this, my dear, preceded you.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

Only the individual who is so...

Only the individual who is solitary is like a thing placed under profound laws, and when he goes out into the morning that is just beginning, or looks out into the evening that is full of happening, and if he feels what is going on there, then all status drops from him as from a dead man, though he stands in the midst of sheer life.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

Look, I am living. On what? N...

Look, I am living. On what? Neither childhood nor future lessens . . . . Superabundant existence wells in my heart.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

If there is nothing you can s...

If there is nothing you can share with other people, try to be close to Things, they will not abandon you; and the nights are still here and the winds that move through the trees and across many lands; everything in the world of Things and animals is still filled with happening, which you can take part in.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

If only we arrange our life a...

If only we arrange our life according to that principle which counsels us that we must hold to the difficult, then that which now still seems to us the most alien will become what we most trust and find most faithful.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

A good marriage is that in whi...

A good marriage is that in which each appoints the other guardian of his solitude. Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue to exist, a wonderful living side by side can grow up, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole and against a wide sky.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

Children are still the way you...

Children are still the way you were as a child, sad and happy in just the same way-and if you think of your childhood, you once again live among them, among the solitary children.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

If, when you wake up in the mo...

If, when you wake up in the morning, you can think of nothing but writing . . . then you are a writer.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

Live the questions now....

Live the questions now.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

I live my life in widening cir...

I live my life in widening circle That reach out across the world. I may not ever complete the last one, But I give myself to it. I circle around God, that primordial tower. I have been circling for thousands of years, And I still don't know: am I a falcon, A storm, or a great song? [I, 2]

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

Perhaps somewhere, someplace d...

Perhaps somewhere, someplace deep inside your being, you have undergone important changes while you were sad.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

The most visible joy can only ...

The most visible joy can only reveal itself to us when we've transformed it, within.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

Of all my books, I find only a...

Of all my books, I find only a few indispensible.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

The deep parts of my life pour...

The deep parts of my life pour onward, as if the river shores were opening out. I feel closer to what language can't reach. With my senses, as with birds, I climb into the windy heaven... in the ponds broken off from the sky. . .

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

Everything is gestation and br...

Everything is gestation and bringing forth. To let each impression and each germ of feeling come to completion wholly in itself, in the dark, in the inexpressible, the unconscious, beyond the reach of one's own intelligence, and await with deep humility and patience the birth-hour of a new clarity: that alone is living the artist's life.

Rainer Maria Rilke 541 quotes

Just as language has no longer...

Just as language has no longer anything in common with the thing it names, so the movements of most of the people who live in cities have lost their connection with the earth; they hang, as it were, in the air, hover in all directions, and find no place where they can settle.
