Old German Prayer Book Value?

I have a 1859 copy of a German prayer book Called "Himmlischer Blumengarten". It may be water damaged, or it might just be it's age. but the print is still completely clear, there are no pages stuck together, no smearing, and the print is darker than in any book you might buy today. I was wondering about how much it might be worth?

Can you name this poem and poet / author?

The following is hand engraved on a window in my home in Berkeley, California:

"A house for wisdom, a field for revelation.
Speak to the stones, and the stars answer.
At first the visible obscures: Go where light is."

There is an author indicated (well known) but I cannot find this poem (or excerpt from a greater literary work) referenced or attributed to this person beyond my window.

According to the owner, this was scratched into the glass sometime in the early- to mid-sixties. I don't want to reveal the source as I would like untainted answers. Flex your prose skills on this one, I am curious to see what people come up with...

Does anyone one else wonder if they were put on earth for a reason. Because I feel like if I die tomorrow, nothing will have changed, I serve no purpose whatsoever. It's very perplexing.

Which one is better, to be a doctor or to be a businesswoman?

If I decide to be a doctor, I 'll have to spend one-fifth of my life time to be a skilful doctor. Moreover, it'll set me back much money and it is uncertain to get a good position in docter field. The advantages are that I will be happy if I choose to be a doctor, and my family want me to be a doctor. I think to be a businesswoman is more easy, but I think I'll not have a peaceful mind if I do it.
