Now you feel how nothing clings to you;
your vast shell reaches into endless space, and there the rich, thick fluids rise and flow.
Illuminated in your infinite peace,
a billion stars go spinning through the night, blazinghigh above your head.
But IN you is the presence that will be, when all the stars are dead.
It was not in me It came and went
I wanted to hold it It was held by wine
(I no longer know what it was)
Ultimately, and precisely in the deepest and most important matters, we are unspeakably alone; and many things must happen, many things must go right, a whole constellation of events must be fulfilled, for one human being to successfully advise or help another.

Ah, not to be cut off,
not through the slightest partition
shut out from the law of the stars.
The inner -- what is it?
if not the intensified sky,
hurled through with birds and deep
with the winds of homecoming.
Again and again, however we know the landscape of love
and the little churchyard there, with its sorrowing names,
and the frighteningly silent abyss into which the others
fall: again and again the two of us walk out together
under the ancient trees, lie down again and again
among the flowers, face to face with the sky.
Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.

Rainer Maria RilkeArt too is just a way of living.

I live my life in growing orbits which move out over this wondrous world, I am circling around God, around ancient towers and i have been circling for a thousand years. And I still dont know if I am an eagle or a storm or a great song.
