Conversation at Steiner's House
"Discussing Morandi's painting with Steiner"
"The objects are covered with a melancholy light, but they are depicted in a calm, precise, rigorous way. It brings them to life. You could say it's an artistic technique that excludes chance."
"With the Poet Elis"
"Be careful not to bind yourself. Stay free, stay motivated, like me, never get married, never choose, even in love, it's better for the other party to choose."
"...this is my preferred art, an art that we need in the future, an art that is clear, precise, without rhetorical tricks, so that you don't lie, you don't flatter. Now I'm doing a job I don't like. , but I'm always thinking about the future."
"We all have to think about the future, but don't forget to live in the present. I think if a person is full of soul and passionate about life, then an instant can be worth a year, and every year can be five years younger!"
"With Steiner"
"Your house is such a sanctuary, your children, your wife, your books, your extraordinary friends. Me, I'm wasting my time, I can't do anything anymore, I used to have ambitions, But it seems like I lost them all. I forgot them all."
"Don't think that having a home makes you feel safe, don't imitate me. I'm too serious as a layman, and not strong enough as a professional poet, that's all. Believe me, the most miserable life is better than a socially protected existence. All things It's all planned and everything is perfect. Marcello, I can only be your friend, so I can't give you any advice.…"
"Sometimes at night, this darkness, this silence weighs down on me, and the peace terrifies me, I fear the peace more than anything else, to me it all seems like a shell, and hell lies behind it ...they always say that the world is going to be a better place, why should a phone call end everything? People should leave passion and even emotion behind and live in the harmony of a perfect work of art, in a fascinating order. , we should love each other so much that we will be immortal, detached. detached? "Wry smile"..."
"Argument with girlfriend Emma"
"What do you want from me? What else do you want? Shameless man, it's pathetic. You'll be lonely like a dog, you will. Who will be with you when I'm gone? How will you live? Yes Who can love you like me? You always say that I am crazy, that I live in a dream and ignore reality, but it is you who is crazy. Haven't you found that you have found the most important thing in life? A person who truly loves you Woman, she gave her life for you. You thought you were the only one in the world. You ruined everything. You were always angry and unhappy. Marcello, when two people love each other, nothing else matters, What are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid of you, of your selfishness, of your woefully hopeless ideals, don't you think you expect me to live a life of a worm? You only talk about cooking and sleeping, and if a man can accept that, he Just a wretch, he's a worm. I don't believe in your imposed, tangled, maternal love! I don't want this kind of love! It doesn't work for me. It's not love, it's bestiality! When will you understand , I can't live like this. I don't want to live with you anymore. I want to live alone."
Then, Marcello drove Emma out of the car. Then, Marcello took Emma home.
