Cesare Pavese
“Un paese ci vuole, non fosse che per il gusto di andarsene via. Un paese vuol dire non essere soli, sapere che nella gente, nelle piante, nella terra c'è qualcosa di tuo, che anche quando non ci sei resta ad aspettarti.”
Cesare Pavese, La luna e i falò

Cesare Pavese
“Tutto il problema della vita è dunque questo: come rompere la propria solitudine, come comunicare con altri.”
Cesare Pavese, Il mestiere di vivere: Diario 1935-1950

Naomi Oreskes
“There is an old joke: A physicist, an engineer, and an economist are stranded on a desert island with nothing but canned food. The physicist proposes to make a fire and heat the can until it bursts. The engineer proposes to climb to a local ridge and drop the can, which will burst on landing. The economist says: “Assume a can opener.”
Naomi Oreskes, The Big Myth: How American Business Taught Us to Loathe Government and Love the Free Market

Ted Kooser
“Dust too
is drawn on wings
to light.”
Ted Kooser, Braided Creek

Gilles Deleuze
“When Spinoza says that we do not even know what a body can do, this is practically a war cry. He adds that we speak of consciousness, mind, soul, of the power of the soul over the body; we chatter away about these things, but do not even know what bodies can do. Moral chattering replaces true philosophy”
Gilles Deleuze
