“La giraffa ha il cuore lontano dai pensieri. Si è innamorata ieri, e ancora non lo sa.”
Stefano Benni, Ballate

“[M]y favorite teacher was explaining that you don't say but however. These are pleonasms: the use of more words than necessary to express an idea. There are times in life that are very but however.”
Stefano Benni, Margherita Dolce Vita

“Destiny cuts
the cake of love,
Three slices to some,
To others, a crumb.”
Stefano Benni, Margherita Dolce Vita
