“Non ci sono parole belle o brutte. Tutte sono stupende. Purché siano reali e pertinenti. Spesso le parole sono usate in modo orribile, e alcune vengono logorate dall’uso. Perciò bisogna aspettare che ritrovino un’innocenza”

- Patrizia Cavalli (via myborderland)

“She read books quickly and compulsively, paperback after paperback, as if she might drift away without the anchor of the printed page.”

“We use novels, not old newspapers, to get a sense of what life was like 100 years ago. I believe 100 years from now, future generations will still use novels the same way. They’ll use novels, not tweets or posts like this. And they’ll use the rich ones — the ones that have things to say things about culture and politics, the ones that absorb and synthesize.”

- Robin Sloan in his article “Welcome ‘The Sopranos’ and Twitter” from The New York Times, June 2012 (via bookmania)
