Here's the difficulty about suicide: it is an act of ambition that can be committed only when one has passed beyond ambition.

We want Realism's wealth of experience and Symbolism's depth of feeling. All art is a problem of balance between two opposites.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

Perfect behaviour is born of ...

Perfect behaviour is born of complete indifference.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

Life is not a search for expe...

Life is not a search for experience, but for ourselves. Having discovered our own fundamental level we realize that it conforms to our own destiny and we find peace.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

No one ever lacks a good reason for suicide.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

If you wish to travel far and...

If you wish to travel far and fast, travel light. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness and fears.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

One stops being a child when one realizes that telling one's trouble does not make it any better.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

The art of living is the art of knowing how to believe lies.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

The closing years of life are...

The closing years of life are like the end of a masquerade party, when the masks are dropped.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

A man is never completely alone in this world. At the worst, he has the company of a boy, a youth, and by and by a grown man - the one he used to be.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

One does not kill oneself for...

One does not kill oneself for love of a woman, but because love - any love - reveals us in our nakedness, our misery, our vulnerability, our nothingness.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

Life is pain and the enjoyment of love is an anesthetic.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

Living is like working out a ...

Living is like working out a long addition sum, and if you make a mistake in the first two totals you will never find the right answer. It means involving oneself in a complicated chain of circumstances.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

It is not that the child live...

It is not that the child lives in a world of imagination, but that the child within us survives and starts into life only at rare moments of recollection, which makes us believe, and it is not true, that, as children, we were imaginative?

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

Every luxury must be paid for...

Every luxury must be paid for, and everything is a luxury, starting with being in this world.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

He knows not his own strength...

He knows not his own strength that hath not met adversity.

It is stupid to grieve for the loss of a girl friend: you might never have met her, so you can do without her.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

Why does a man who is truly i...

Why does a man who is truly in love insist that this relationship must continue and be "lifelong"? Because life is pain and the enjoyment of love is an anesthetic. Who would want to wake up halfway through an operation?

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

The art of living is the art ...

The art of living is the art of knowing how to believe lies. The fearful thing about it is that, not knowing what truth may be, we can still recognize lies.

Cesare Pavese 161 quotes

The only joy in the world is ...

The only joy in the world is to begin. It is good to be alive because living is beginning, always, every moment.
