Every time I go looking for Rilke quotes, I am blown away anew. Every sentence is beautiful. Oh, to be so gifted. The title of this post is an
excerpt from this. Give it a read, and if you like it, start browsing more writings. You won't be let down.
Reminiscent of the title quote is one from The Brothers Karamazov by Dostoevsky: "
The awful thing is that beauty is mysterious as well as terrible. God and the devil are fighting there and the battlefield is the heart of man.”
