Live the questions

Letters to a Young Poet · Rainer Maria Rilke

One sentence from Rilke that has done more for the people I work with than any framework I have ever taught them.

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now.
