"He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how."
-- Friedrich Nietzsche
Self portrait 8-3-13 |
"Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart.
Try to love the questions themselves,
like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language.
Do not now look for the answers.
They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them.
It is a question of experiencing everything.
At present you need to live the question.
Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it,
find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day.
-- Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
