Rilke thought of angels descending through
the empty silence of the universe down a fire escape of stars. He thought of
angels climbing in the window, of an angel writing something in a book with
exaggerated gestures as if it were conducting a symphony.

—Richard Garcia, "Little Known Fact Number Two"
