    David Guterson
    “He had watched her, after all, mourn her husband's death and it had been for her in part the discovery that grief could attach itself with permanence - something Ishmael had already discovered. It attached itself and then it burrowed inside and made a nest and stayed. It ate whatever was warm nearby, and then the coldness settled in permanently. You learned to live with it.”

    Rainer Maria Rilke
    “My life is not this steeply sloping hour,
    in which you see me hurrying.
    Much stands behind me; I stand before it like a tree;
    I am only one of my many mouths,
    and at that, the one that will be still the soonest.

    I am the rest between two notes,
    which are somehow always in discord
    because Death’s note wants to climb over—
    but in the dark interval, reconciled,
    they stay there trembling.
    And the song goes on, beautiful.”
    Rainer Maria Rilke, The Selected Poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke
