Always liked this para from Rilke's Notebooks of MLB, trans. R. Vilain. Seems esp fitting these days.
Screenshot from Rilke's Notebooks of MLB, translation Robert Vilain: Is it possible that, despite inventions and progress, despite culture, religion, and philosophy, we have remained on the surface of life? Is it possible that even this surface, which might at least have been something, has been covered with an incredibly boring material so that it looks like the drawing-room furniture in the summer holidays? Yes, it's possible.
