Ripeness is all
“What, in ill thoughts again? Men must endure Their going hence even as their coming hither. Ripeness is all. Come on”.
Another Tree
“I see everywhere in nature, for example in trees, capacity for expression and, as it were, a soul”.
Vincent Van Gogh
Albero Padano
“The more a man can forget, the greater the number of metamorphoses which his life can undergo; the more he can remember, the more divine his life becomes”.
Boundaries
“Like as the waves make towards the pebbl’d shore, so do our minutes, hasten to their end”.
The First Day of Summer
“Tornerà un altro inverno
Cadranno mille pètali di rose
La neve coprirà tutte le cose
E forse un’altra estate tornerà”.
Bruno Martino
