Famous Quotes / Rainer Maria Rilke
Rainer Maria Rilke: "There is here no measuring with time, no year matters, and ten years are nothing. Being an artist means not reckoning and counting, but ripening like the tree which does not force its sap and stands confident in the storms of Spring without the fear that after them may come no Summer. It does come. I learn it daily, learn it with pain, to which I am grateful…"
