It is his only work to be translated into English and Spanish.

Quotes by Mario Rigoni Stern (?)

“Vi era un bel sole: tutto era chiaro e trasparente, solo nel cuore degli uomini era buio.”

“«E a sera, attorno al fuoco, fumando trinciato forte, ci raccontavamo storie e vicende della vita [...]
Lassù la montagna è silenziosa e deserta. La neve che in questi giorni è caduta abbondante ha cancellato i sentieri dei pastori, le aie dei carbonai, le trincee della Grande guerra, le avventure dei cacciatori. E sotto quella neve vivono i miei ricordi».”
― Mario Rigoni Stern, Sentieri sotto la neve

“Parlare di casa nostra, dei nostri cari, delle nostre ragazze, dei nostri monti; degli amici. Ti ricordi, Rino, quella volta che l’insegnante di francese ci disse: – Una mela guasta può far marcire una mela sana, ma una mela sana non può sanare una mela guasta?”
― Mario Rigoni Stern, Il sergente nella neve
