Rilke advised the young fan to “live the questions,” offering a radically patient approach to life’s uncertainties that has inspired generations.
In How to Fall in Love With Questions, author and behavioral scientist Elizabeth Weingarten explores how to embrace life’s big questions instead of seeking quick and shallow answers.
