Rainer Maria Rilke said ...

... For one human being to love another; that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation.

... Perhaps everything terrible is in its deepest being something helpless that wants help from us.

... Perhaps all the dragons of our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us once beautiful and brave.
