"I am learning to see. I don't know why it is, but everything penetrates more deeply into me and does not stop at the place where until now it always used to finish. I have an inner self of which I was ignorant. Everything goes thither now. What happens there I do not know."
Truthfully there were some passages of this book that I found myself lost and the struggle tedious, but otherwise, some of the best pages I have ever read. One of few prose works from the poet Rainer Maria Rilke.
