Quote by Emanuele Mazzocco

“Purtroppo il Signore mi ha donato questa maledetta testa pensante, che non si ferma ad accettare la realtà come viene o come appare. No. La mia testa rimugina, si tortura in mille pensieri, approfondisce, si incuriosisce, non si placa mai ma mi porta sempre al di là dell'immediato. Al di là delle cose scontate.”

Author:William Shakespeare

“I am a maid, My lord, that ne'er before invited eyes, But have been gazed on like a comet: she speaks, My lord, that, may be, hath endured a grief Might equal yours, if both were justly weigh'd. Though wayward fortune did malign my state, My derivation was from ancestors Who stood equivalent with mighty kings: But time hath rooted out my parentage, And to the world and awkward casualties Bound me in servitude. ~Marina, "Pericles”
