Rainer once said, “The purpose of life is to be defeated by greater and greater things.”

Huh . . . That's strange to me because I never knew a beer that could talk.

I've drank a lot of Rainer and never heard one speak philosophy to me.

. . . Holy shit, dude, Rainer Maria Rilke said it.

Oohhh . . . Is that like an IPA?

The poet!

Huh?

The poet!

What the hell does a poet know about being defeated by greater and greater things??

Probably more than you.

Doubt it.
