“How oddly akin is the hero to the early dead. Duration doesn't interest him. For him, only ascent matters, steadfastly he drives on and enters the altered constellation of his constant danger. There few would find him. But fate, which grimly shuts us in silence, suddenly inspired sings him into the storm of his uproaring world.” — Rainer Maria Rilke
How oddly akin is the hero to the early dead. Duration
doesn't interest him. For him, only ascent matters, steadfastly
he drives on and enters the altered constellation
of his constant danger. There few would find him. But
fate, which grimly shuts us in silence, suddenly inspired
sings him into the storm of his uproaring world.
