Life Quote by Rainer Maria Rilke
““Perhaps you intend, O my God, to relinquish everything and love them. Why else do I find it so hard not to follow them when they pass me? [...] Why do I imagine how I would hold them close, right up to my breath, with an inexistable caution, these dolls whom life has played with, flinging their arms open with every spring that comes, til their shoulder joints grow loose? They have never fallen from a hope so high, and so they are not broken; but they are battered and already in too poor a state for life to have much use for them. - On poor children””
