People don't realize how much they are in the grip of ideas.
We live among ideas much more than we live in nature.
~ Saul Bellow
doing so,
"Ich stehe mir im Weg"
I stand in my own way.
The wine of life is oozing drop by drop,
The leaves of life are falling one by one.
~ Omar Khayyam
.
Happy are those who know:
Behind all words, the Unsayable stands;
And from that source alone, the Infinite
Crosses over to gladness, and us -
Free of our bridges
Built with the stone of distinctions;
So that always, within each delight,
We gaze at what is purely single and joined.
~ Rainer Maria Rilke
