Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart.
And try to love the questions themselves.
Do not see the answers that cannot be given you
Because you would not be able to live them.
And the point is to live everything.
Live the questions now.
Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it,
Live along some distant day into the answer.
-- Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet, 1929
