Luigi Pirandello
Refusing to have an opinion is a way of having one, isn't it?
Luigi Pirandello
When [man] is happy he takes his happiness as it comes and doesn't analyze it, just as if happiness were his right.

It is misery, you know, unspeakable misery for the man who lives alone and who detests sordid, casual affairs not old enough to do without women, but not young enough to be able to go and look for one without shame!
Luigi Pirandello

Luigi Pirandello
Pretending is a virtue. If you cant pretend, you can't be king.
Luigi Pirandello
Whoever has the luck to be born a character can laugh even at death. Because a character will never die! A man will die, a writer, the instrument of creation: but what he has created will never die!
Luigi Pirandello
In bed my real love has always been the sleep that rescued me by allowing me to dream.
Luigi Pirandello

Luigi Pirandello
When the characters are really alive before their author, the latter does nothing but follow them in their action, in their words, in the situations which they suggest to him.
Luigi Pirandello

Luigi Pirandello
Not one of us can lie or pretend. We're all fixed in good faith in a certain concept of ourselves.
Luigi Pirandello
None of us can estimate what we do when we do it from instinct.
Luigi Pirandello
Every true man, sir, who is a little above the level of the beasts and plants does not live for the sake of living, without knowing how to live but he lives so as to give a meaning and a value of his own to life.
Luigi Pirandello
Life is little more than a loan shark: It exacts a very high rate of interest for the few pleasures it concedes
Luigi Pirandello
Those who understood, in fact, say: 'I mustn't do this, I mustn't do that,' so as not to commit some stupidity or other! Splendid! But at a certain point we realize that all life is stupidity so tell me yourself what it means never to have done anything foolish. At the very least it means you have never lived.
Luigi Pirandello
