"How beautiful you are! You are more beautiful in anger than in repose. I don’t ask you for your love. Give me yourself and your hatred. Give me yourself and that pretty rage. Give me yourself and that enchanting scorn. It will be enough for me."

Lasciate Ogni Sperantza
"I wanted to see you again, touch you, know who you were, see if I would find you identical with the ideal image of you which had remained with me and perhaps shatter my dream with the aid of reality."

Poland
quote
"For ordinary books are like meteors. Each of them has only one moment, a moment when it soars screaming like the phoenix, all its pages aflame. For that single moment we love them ever after, although they soon turn to ashes. With bitter resignation we sometimes wander late at night through the extinct pages that tell their stone-dead messages like wooden rosary beads."

"You have forgotten a wretch to whom, the very next day, you brought relief on the ignominious pillory. A draught of water and a look of pity are more than I could repay with my life. You have forgotten that wretch–but he has not forgotten."
