[Rainer Maria] Rilke's life was marked by loneliness. One of Rilke's mentors, the French writer Paul Valéry, described the poet as spending "eternal winters long in excessive intimacy with silence." Rilke dedicated his life to pursuing "Weltinnenraum," or "inner-world-space," believing that only by deep introspection could one truly understand the mind.from findingDulcinea: Happy Birthday: Happy Birthday, Rainer Maria Rilke, Author of "Letters to a Young Poet"
