“La cultura dell'individuo è sempre sul farsi o non è.
L'uomo colto non è chi sa, ma chi apprende ... colto e non puramente erudito è l'uomo che sente il dovere di alimentare il proprio spirito assiduamente, quotidianamente, qualsiasi siano le circostanze in cui si trova a vivere”
― Guido Morselli

“I fear a Man of frugal speech -
I fear a Silent Man -
Haranguer - I can overtake -
Or Babbler - entertain -

But He who weigheth - While the Rest -
Expend their furthest pound -
Of this Man - I am wary -
I fear that He is Grand -”
― Emily Dickinson
