Rainer Maria Rilke Quote

Rose, oh pure contradiction, desire,
To be no one's sleep under so many
Lids.


His own epitaph written by himself (c. 1925)


Rose, oh pure contradiction, desire, To be no one's sleep under so many Lids.

Rose, oh pure contradiction, desire, To be no one's sleep under so many Lids.

Rose, oh pure contradiction, desire, To be no one's sleep under so many Lids.

Rose, oh pure contradiction, desire, To be no one's sleep under so many Lids.
