“Ich denke oft an sie.
Wenn wir nur alle in den Himmel kommen.
Wo Ihnen wohl der nächste Sommer blüht.
Ich glaube ich bin mit meinem Leben zufrieden.”
Paula Modersohn-Becker, Briefwechsel mit Rainer Maria Rilke.

“Und nun weiß ich gar nicht wie ich mich unterschreiben soll. Ich bin nicht Modersohn und ich bin auch nicht mehr Paula Becker.
Ich bin
Ich,
und hoffe, es immer mehr zu werden.
Das ist wohl das Endziel von allem unserm Ringen.”
Paula Modersohn-Becker, Briefwechsel mit Rainer Maria Rilke.
