Cesare Pavese
Many men on the point of an edifying death would be furious if they were suddenly restored to health.
Cesare Pavese
You need a village, if only for the pleasure of leaving it. A village means that you are not alone, knowing that in the people, the trees, the earth, there is something that belongs to you, waiting for you when you are not there.
Cesare Pavese

Cesare Pavese
