Ever since I started to study Rainer Maria Rilke in school, I couldn't put him down.
I don't know if it's because of his addicting ideologies.
Or because I see a lot of myself in him and his thought processes.
He exposed what he believed was the truth, and spoke just that.
He was honest, in a world where the truth has now become a scandal...
that's all people were really searching for.
I collected my favourite Rilke quotes :
''A person isn't who they are during the last conversation you had with them - they're who they've been throughout your whole relationship.''
''I want to be with those who know secret things or else alone.''
''Love is like the measles. The older you get it, the worse the attack.''
''Perhaps everything terrible is in its deepest being something helpless that wants help from us.''
''The deepest experience of the creator is feminine, for it is experience of receiving and bearing.''
