Understand, I'll slip quietly away from the noisy crowd when I see the pale stars rising, blooming, over the oaks. I'll pursue solitary pathways through the pale twilit meadows with only this one dream: You come too.

Rainer Maria Rilke
Dream, Stars, Reading

He does not always remain bent over the pages; he often leans back and closes his eyes over a line he has been reading again, and its meaning spreads through his blood.

Rainer Maria Rilke
Reading, Eye, Blood

Ah, how good it is to be among people who are reading!

Rainer Maria Rilke
Book, Reading, People
Rainer Maria Rilke (1930). “The Journal of My Other Self”

There are quite a number of people in the reading-room; but one is not aware of them. They are inside the books. They move, sometimes, within the pages like sleepers turning over between two dreams. Ah, how good it is to be among people who are reading.

Rainer Maria Rilke
Dream, Reading, Moving
Rainer Maria Rilke (1930). “The Journal of My Other Self”
