Laurene Powell Jobs, in her introduction to the newest publication from the Steve Jobs Archive:
Among the books that mattered to Steve was Rilke’s Letters to a
Young Poet. I’m struck by this line from its pages: “Live the
questions for now. Perhaps then you will gradually, without
noticing it, live your way into the answer, one distant day in the
future.”This is a time to live your questions. The beauty of answers, when
they do come, is that they allow us to ask new and better
questions. Life is learning how much we have yet to learn. In this
volume, we have asked distinguished creators of diverse fields to
share some of their answers to questions you asked at the
beginning of your fellowship year. You’ll find candid stories of
struggle and success, mistakes, and milestones. The wisdom they
share in their reflections was forged by asking the kinds of
questions you’re asking now.
