More From Rainer Maria Rilke
- "If your daily life seems poor, do not blame it; blame yourself that you are not poet enough to call forth its riches; for the Creator, there is no poverty."
- "A person isn’t who they are during the last conversation you had with them – they’re who they’ve been throughout your whole relationship."
- "Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue, a wonderful living side by side can grow, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole against the sky."
More In Marriage
- "I was a Christian. I didn’t want to have sex before marriage, I was a bit uptight and not very self-confident. I was a virgin until I was 26."― Jimmy Carr
- "Always get married in the morning. That way if it doesn’t work out, you haven’t wasted the whole day."― Mickey Rooney
- "I say I never wanna get married. I feel trapped with the idea of marriage. How can you really be with somebody forever? I’d get bored! As I get older, I don’t settle. I’d rather tell somebody ‘This is what I want – take it or leave it.’"― Amanda Bynes
