As Rilke says so beautifully:.
Lots of things that have never been.- Rainer Maria Rilke.
Full of things that have never been.- Rainer Maria Rilke.
For the next 12 years Paris was the geographic centre of Rilke's life.
Enough to raise the hair on our heads, like Rilke and Wilfred Owen.
Love consists of this: two solitudes that meet, protect and greet each other.-
Rainer Maria Rilke.
Love consists of this: two solitudes that meet, protect and greet each other.”
―Rainer Maria Rilke.
Love consists in this, that two solitudes protect and touch and greet each other.-
Ranier Maria Rilke.
Love consists in this, that two solitudes protect and touch and greet each other.-
By Rainer Maria Rilke.
Love consists in this, that two solitudes protect and touch and greet each other.

Rilke gave the ultimate advice in his“Letters to a Young
Poet”-“Ask yourself in the most silent hour of your night: must I write?
Rilke was commissioned by a German publisher to write
a book about Rodin and went to Paris, where the sculptor lived, in 1902.
Rilke questions the young poet's dedication to writing:“This most of all:
Ask yourself in the most silent hour of your night: must I write?”?
Rilke was commissioned by a German publisher to write a book about Rodin(Rodin,
Auguste) and went to Paris, where the sculptor lived, in 1902.
In 1902 he became the friend and for a time secretary to Rodin,
and it was during his twelve-year Paris residence that Rilke enjoyed his greatest poetic activity.

In a 1921 letter to Countess M., Rilke, the German poet, wrote,“Everyone,
in the last analysis, experiences only one conflict in life which only disguises itself differently all the time…”.
Rilke travelled extensively throughout Europe(including Russia,
Spain, Germany, France and Italy), and in his later years settled in Switzerland- settings that were key to the genesis and inspiration for many of his poems.
Holding in contempt“all other more traditional forms of devoutness,
which… merely‘accept God as a given fact,'” Rilke did not deny God's existence, but insisted
that all possibilities about the nature of life be given equal consideration.
