Rainer Maria Rilke.
“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves.”
Rainer Maria Rilke (1875–1926) was an Austrian poet, one of the best-known writers in the German language. His Letters to a Young Poet are still read as gentle advice on doubt, patience and becoming yourself.
