Giacomo Leopardi
“Rest forever, tired heart.
The final illusion has perished.
The one we believed eternal is gone.
Just like that. Out the door desire
follows hope. Rest forever.
Enough throbbing. Nothing deserves your attention
nor is the earth worth a sigh.
Bitterness and boredom is life,
nothing else ever, and the world is mud.
Quiet now. Despair for the last time.
Fate gives us dying as a gift.
Now turn from the hills, the ugly hidden power
which rules for the common evil
and the infinite vanity of it all.”
Giacomo Leopardi

Osamu Dazai
“I am afraid because I can so clearly foresee my own life rotting away of itself, like a leaf that rots without falling, while I pursue my round of existence from day to day.”
Osamu Dazai, The Setting Sun

Osamu Dazai
“He could only consider me as the living corpse of a would-be suicide, a person dead to shame, an idiot ghost.”
Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human

Giacomo Leopardi
“Children find everything in nothing, men find nothing in everything.”
Giacomo Leopardi, Zibaldone di pensieri

Aeschylus
“She looked just like a painting dying to speak.”
Aeschylus, Agamemnon
