: "Works of art are of an infinite solitude, and no means of approach is so useless as criticism.

I have it from a reliable source that Rilke once asked: How many Freudian analysts does it take to change a light bulb?

to which he was answered

Two, one to change the bulb and one to hold the penis, I mean the ladder.

he then asked how many social workers does it take to change a light bulb to which he was told...

one, but the light bulb's really really got to want to change!!!

got anything profound by Rudolf Steiner? hope not!
