Join 📚 Carla's Highlights

A batch of the best highlights from what Carla's read, .

One of my favorite poets, Rainer Rilke, shared this advice with a young writer: “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.”
