"If a poet has any obligation toward society, it is to write well. Being in the minority, he has no other choice. Failing this duty, he sinks into oblivion. Society, on the other hand, has no obligation toward the poet. A majority by definition, society thinks of itself as having other options th...

"Have you had a kindness shown?
Pass it on;
'twas not given for thee alone,
Pass it on;
Let it travel down the years,
Let it wipe another's tears,
Till in Heaven the deed appears,
Pass it on."

"There is no moment like the present. The man who will not execute
his resolutions when they are fresh upon him can have no hope from
them afterwards: they will be dissipated, lost, and perish in the hurry
and scurry of the world, or sunk in the slough of indolence."

"Pettiness of mind, ignorance and presumption are the cause of stubbornness,
because stubborn people only want to believe what they themselves
can imagine, and they can imagine very few things."

"Every now and then go away, have a little relaxation for when you come back to your work your judgment will be surer. Go some distance away because then the work appears smaller and more of it can be taken in at a glance and a lack of harmony and proportion is more readily seen." ~ Leonardo ...

There is absolutely nothing wrong with allowing yourself to be captivated by beauty, whether you find it in a painting, a story, a piece of music or the elegant movements of your next-door-neighbor. What would be detrimental to your health, your reputation and your job performance -- not to men...

la canzone "Le parole che non ti ho detto" non è fortunata finora, l'ho ascoltato bene e mi piacciono queste "parole". Non abbiamo la possibilità per votare parrechie volte, percio' preferisco fare un top-ten, ci sono troppe canzoni che mi piacciono. Whatever, but I am watching Andrea on TV at ...

How come nobody has voted for this beautiful song? It's beautiful, especially this part: "Le Parole che non ti ho detto" ? [...] Non importa, semmai Riderei anche se non mi va… Non importa, se mai Il mio nome scorderai Chiudo gli occhi per sentir le mio paure, No non tremor certo per le ...

I like "Semplicemente" as #1 and "Un Nuovo Giorno" as #2. Unfortunately, we can vote only once... :wink:
