Comrade, this is not a book —
Whoever touches this touches a man.
Walt Whitman
"I must confess that I, a Tuscan, an Italian, a Latin, did not feel what poetry meant by reading Virgil or Dante, and even less Petrarch and Tasso, poets of luxury and consequently more men of letters than poets, but rather by reading the puerile enumerations and the passionate invocations of the good reaper of Grass Leaves . »
