It is good to be solitary, for solitude is difficult. That something is difficult must be one more reason for us to do it. It is also good to love: because love is difficult. (Rainer Maria Rilke)

Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love. (Rainer Maria Rilke)

Everything is gestation and then birthing. To let each impression and each embryo of a feeling come to completion, entirely in itself, in the dark, in the unsayable, the unconscious, beyond the reach of one's own understanding, and with deep humility and patience to wait for the hour when a new clarity is born: this alone is what it means to live as an artist. (Rainer Maria Rilke)

What is happening on your innermost self is worthy of your entire love.

Don't observe yourself too closely. Don't be too quick to draw conclusions from what happens to you; simply let it happen.

Allow your judgments a silent, undisturbed development, which, like all progress, must come from deep within and cannot be forced or hastened.
