An anthology of poetry and quotations


Who is Rilke?

Welcome! A few years ago I stumbled upon Rilke's Letters to a Young Poet and found myself immediately drawn to his wonderful poetry. Since this time, my interest in Rilke has grown. I decided to devote a web site to this brilliant poet, and hope you enjoy his writings as much as I do.

This web site features 100 selected poems and over 100 selected quotations of Rilke's poetry and writings. Indexes to his works are provided, as well as a selected bibliography of Rilke's works, translations, and books about him. Click on Rilke's image for a brief biography on the great poet.

Looking for Rilke's works in his native German? Check out this awesome web site from Germany, all full-text.

Several of you have written me asking about the quote from Rilke featured in the recent movie Kissing Jessica Stein. Take a look here.
