Italo Calvino
“What harbor can receive you more securely than a great library?”
Italo Calvino, If on a Winter's Night a Traveler

Italo Calvino
“Futures not achieved are only branches of the past: dead branches.”
Italo Calvino, Invisible Cities

Italo Calvino
“If one wanted to depict the whole thing graphically, every episode, with its climax, would require a three-dimensional, or, rather, no model: every experience is unrepeatable. What makes lovemaking and reading resemble each other most is that within both of them times and spaces open, different from measurable time and space.”
Italo Calvino, If on a Winter's Night a Traveler

Friedrich Nietzsche
“You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.”
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

Italo Calvino
“Who are we, who is each one of us, if not a combination of experiences, information, books we have read, things imagined? Each life is an encyclopedia, a library, an inventory of objects, a series of styles, and everything can be constantly shuffled and reordered in every way conceivable.”
Italo Calvino, Six Memos for the Next Millennium
