Lore EA question
early 13th century, questioun, "philosophical or theological problem"
early 14th century, as "utterance meant to elicit an answer or discussion, a difficulty, a doubt"
from Latin quaestio "investigation, a questioning, inquiry"
"Do you know yourself, so you may answer this common and direct question clearly, precisely, and without the delightfully avoidable insertion of projections, presumptions, formalities, excuses, or platitudes?"
"Originals"
"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 now 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 then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer."
