Slowly the west reaches for clothes of new colors which it passes to a row of ancient trees.
You look, and soon these two worlds both leave you.
One part climbs toward heaven, one sinks to earth.
One moment your life is a stone in you, and the next, a star.
- Rainier Maria Rilke (1875-1926), from “Sunset”
