Half Broken Things
"But this is what...people are so often and so disastrously wrong in doing: they (who by their very nautre are impatient) fling themselves at each other when love takes hold of them, they scatter themselves, just as they are, in all their messiness, disorder, bewilderment...
And what can happen then? What can life do with this heap of half broken things that they would like to call their happiness, and their future?
And so each of them loses himself for the sake of the other person, and loses the other. And losed the vast possibilities...in exchange for an unfruitful confusion, out of which nothing more can come; nothing but a bit of disgust, disappointment and poverty."
*From Letters to a Young Poet by Rainer Maria Rilke*
