Every luxury must be paid for, and everything is a luxury, starting with being in this world.
Cesare PaveseWhen writing poetry, it is not that produces a bright idea, but the bright idea that kindles the fire of.
Cesare PaveseTo choose a hardship for ourselves is our only defense against that hardship. This is what is meant by accepting suffering. Those who, by their very nature, can suffer completely, utterly, have an advantage. That is how we can disarm the power of suffering, make it our own creation, our own choice; submit to it. A justification for suicide.
