"Guardo l’ora, ma non è ancora tempo.

Giro la chiave nella porta e prendo

il primo libro che non dice nulla.

E all’improvviso, mentre leggo, si fa dolce

l’aria intorno a me: sfuma di azzurro.

Sei entrata nella stanza senza bussare.

Tutto diventa trasparente. Avanzi con un velo

di cielo sul capo".

- "L'attesa e il sogno" - Nikifòros Vrettàkos

"Beauty is often spoke of as though it only stirs lust and admiration, but the most beautiful people are so in a way that makes them look like destiny or fate or meaning, the heroes of a remarkable story. Desire for them is in part a desire for a noble destiny, and beauty can seem like a door to meaning as well as to pleasure. And yet such people are often nothing extraordinary except in their effect on others. Exceptional beauty and charm are among those gifts given by the sinister fairy at the christening. They give the bearer considerable sway over others, which can keep them so busy being a sort of siren on the rocks where others shipwreck that they forget that they themselves need to figure out where they are going."

Rebecca Solnit, from "Abandon", A Field Guide to 'Getting Lost

“Io credo che tu sia la parte migliore della mia vita, quella senza bugie, senza inganni o incazzature, la parte che si può sognare, anche la notte, perché io continuo a sognarti.”

- "Il colibrì" – Sandro Veronesi

[nuvolebuffe]

Suonavamo perché l’Oceano è grande, e fa paura, suonavamo perché la gente non sentisse passare il tempo, e si dimenticasse dov’era, e chi era. Suonavamo per farli ballare, perché se balli non puoi morire, e ti senti Dio.”

- "Novecento" - Alessandro Baricco

"La vita ha bisogno di illusioni, cioè di non verità tenute per verità".

- "Il libro del filosofo" - Friedrich Nietzsche

[metamorphesque]

The thought that you exist is so divinely blissful in itself that it is ridiculous to talk about the everyday sadness of separation – a week’s, ten days’ – what does it matter? since my whole life belongs to you.

— Vladimir Nabokov, Letters to Véra

“Desiderami, stremami, versami, sacrificami. Fai vacillare le cinte dei miei ultimi limiti.”

— Pablo Neruda (via fino-al-di-la-del-tutto)

“Non si può nemmeno immaginare quanto la vita potrebbe essere libera da peccati, se la morale non si scandalizzasse.”

— Karl Kraus

She loved the sea. She liked the sharp salty smell of the air, and the vastness of the horizons bounded only by a vault of azure sky above. It made her feel small, but free as well.

 ― George R. R. Martin
