Misfortunes cannot suffice to make a fool into an intelligent man. - Cesare Pavese

I don't believe it can end. Now that I've seen what war is, what civil war is, I know that everybody, if one day it should end, ought to ask himself: "And what shall we make of the fallen? Why are they dead?" I wouldn't know what to say. Not now, at any rate. Nor does it seem to me that the others know. Perhaps only dead know, and only for them is the war really over.

How can you have confidence in a woman who will not risk entrusting her whole life to you, day and night?

Suicides are timid murderers. Masochism instead of Sadism.
