Italo Calvino
“The more enlightened our houses are, the more their walls ooze ghosts.”
“You take delight not in a city’s seven or seventy wonders, but in the answer it gives to a question of yours.”
“Arriving at each new city, the traveler finds again a past of his that he did not know he had.”
“A classic is a book that has never finished saying what it has to say.”
