Do not now seek answers which cannot be given 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 some distant day into the answer" Rilke A Message for Students: "It is important that students bring a certain ragamuffin barefoot irreverence to their studes; they are not here to worship what is known, but to question it."
