Rainer Maria Rilke Quote

When you go to bed, don't leave bread or milk on the table: it attracts the dead.


Sonnet 6 (as translated by Edward Snow) - Sonnets to Orpheus (1922)


When you go to bed, don't leave bread or milk on the table: it attracts the dead.

When you go to bed, don't leave bread or milk on the table: it attracts the dead.

When you go to bed, don't leave bread or milk on the table: it attracts the dead.

When you go to bed, don't leave bread or milk on the table: it attracts the dead.
