Rainer Maria Rilke.

  1. yes, think about something so beautiful that it protects us from ourselves, it takes all the blame for bad behavior, we bash it, get angry, cut at it and in time it become scared. It lurks in the dark, its hideous tortured body a mass of wounds that have been inflicted – still it protects. It was once a beautiful angel we called fear.
