Quote by Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a

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 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. Perhaps you will find them gradually, without noticing it, and live along some distant day into the answer.

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try

Summary

This quote by Rainer Maria Rilke emphasizes the importance of accepting and embracing the uncertainties and unsolved aspects of life. It encourages us to view these unanswered questions as opportunities for growth and understanding, approaching them with patience and love rather than seeking immediate answers. By living and experiencing these unresolved moments fully, we may gradually discover the answers or insights we seek, possibly even without realizing it, as we navigate our journey towards clarity and enlightenment. Ultimately, the quote suggests that living with the questions is just as significant as discovering the answers themselves.
