Salvatore Quasimodo Quotes

War, I Have Always Said, Forces Men To Change Their Standards, Regardless Of Whether Their Country Has Won Or Lost. Poetics And Philosophies Disintegrate "when The Trees Fall And The Walls Collapse ". At The Point When Continuity Was Interrupted By The First Nuclear Explosion, It Would Have Been Too Easy To Recover The Formal Sediment Which Linked Us With An Age Of Poetic Decorum, Of A Preoccupation With Poetic Sounds. After The Turbulence Of Death, Moral Principles And Even Religious Proofs Are Called Into Question. Men Of Letters Who Cling To The Private Successes Of Their Petty Aesthetics Shut Themselves Off From Poetry's Restless Presence. From The Night, His Solitude, The Poet Finds Day And Starts A Diary That Is Lethal To The Inert. The Dark Landscape Yields A Dialogue. The Politician And The Mediocre Poets With Their Armour Of Symbols And Mystic Purities Pretend To Ignore The Real Poet. It Is A Story Which Repeats Itself Like The Cock's Crow; Indeed, Like The Cock's Third Crow.
