“Mr. Codro's destiny is Ptolemaic; in other words, based on fiction. Ptolemaic says it all; it means above all fixed and unchanging, that is to say different from real life which is by nature changing and temporary. It means: not according to natural truth, but according to man's desire and the pretense inspired by his fear of dying and his desire for permanence.”
― Alberto Savinio

“Защото хората са податливи на по-силните физически въздействия, но са още твърде недодялани, за да обръщат внимание на неуловимите и неизразими неща, които обкръжават нашия живот; не умеят да слушат гласа на предметите и в своето невежество ги считат неми; не умеят да гледат пейзажите, които населяват простора, и в своето дълбоко равнодушие го считат празен; и с големите глави, които не разбират, и със забулените очи, които не виждат, се лутат незнаещи сред загадките.

из "Кресло на любовта”
