“The secret of eternal youth is to stay young in one’s own heart. Outer appearances may fade like an old photograph or painting of one’s life but the inner appearance can shine with a radiance of hope, expectation, childlike optimism and dreams. Old with wisdom but young with wonder.”

Every angel is terrifying. And yet, alas, I invoke you, one of the soul's lethal raptors, well aware of your nature. As in the days of Tobias, when one of you, obscuring his radiance, stood at the simple threshold, appearing ordinary rather than appalling while the curious youth peered through the window. ('Rilke's Second Elegy' by Rainer Maria Rilke, loose translation by Michael R. Burch)
