“Do not be afraid to suffer, give the heaviness back to the weight of the earth; mountains are heavy, seas are heavy. Even those trees you planted as children became too heavy long ago - you couldn’t carry them now. But you can carry the winds… and the open spaces…”

— Rainer Maria Rilke, tr. by Robert Bly

“I would like to step out of my heart and go walking beneath the enormous sky.”

— The Selected Poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke, ‘Lament’ tr. Stephen Mitchell
