Again and again in history some people wake up. They have no ground in the crowd and move to broader, deeper laws. They carry strange customs with them and demand room for bold and audacious action. The future speaks ruthlessly through them. They change the world.

Do not believe that the person who is trying to offer you solace lives his life effortlessly among the simple and quiet worlds that might occasionally comfort you. His life is filled with much hardship and sadness ... But if it were otherwise, he could never have found these words.

Cover of crime novel The Cut Up by Louise Welsh
I always remember as a child feeling sad when I finished a book as reading a book twice isn't the same.
Well I feel exactly the same after I finished this one by the amazing @louisewelsh00.bsky.social (thank you)
But there's others in the series!

#Rilke, for #WorldPoetryDay, and the oft-forgotten next lines of his most famous quote ...
Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
Just keep going. No feeling is final.
Don’t let yourself lose me.
Nearby is the country they call life.
You will know it by its seriousness.
Give me your hand.
- #Rilke, 'Book of Hours,' I 59, tr. #AnitaBurrows & #JoannaMacy
YOU, SENT OUT BEYOND YOUR RECALL
By #Rilke, tr. #AnitaBurrows & #JoannaMacy
You, sent out beyond your recall,
go to the limits of your longing.
Embody me.
Flare up like a flame
and make big shadows I can move in.

Take your practiced powers and stretch them out
until they span the chasm between two
contradictions...For the god
wants to know himself in you.

Do not believe that he who seeks to comfort you lives untroubled among the simple and quiet words that sometimes do you good...
Were it otherwise he would never have been able to find those words.

There are yet words that come near the unsayable,
and, from crumbling stones, a new music
to make a sacred dwelling in a place we cannot own."

THE MACHINE
By #Rilke
"The Machine endangers all we have made.
We allow it to rule instead of obey.
To build a house, cut the stone sharp and fast:
the carver's hand takes too long to feel its way.
The Queen of Hearts playing card.
The Work
~~~~~~~
“The work of the eyes is done. Go now and do the heart-work on the images imprisoned within you.”
~ Rainer Maria Rilke.
