Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will find them gradually, without noticing it, and live along some distant day into the answer. ~Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

I am thinking about the book I loved as a child.... The Monster at the End of the Book....! Sometimes it's better NOT to know.... :-)
....But as for the photo and quote.... PERFECTO! I wanna read the book!
yes, better not to know...because as in your book...the ending is a good surprise...glad you like it! xxx
Rilke was Balthus' Godfather. Be careful. Safety first.
Nice photo :)
Safety first? That doesn't sound like you!
