“My dear Tartini, one’s life is so sweet and precious that even honey tastes like salt in comparison!”

“You see only the cat’s paw, Signor Tartini, whereas I see the sharp claws hidden in that paw!.. Women are like fire; they warm you from afar, and when you enter into them they burn you to ashes!”

“Truths are immortal, my dear friend; they are immortal like God! What we call a falsity is like a fruit; it has a certain number of days; it is bound to decay. Whereas, what we call truth is like gold; days, months, even centuries can hide gold, can overlook it but they can never make it decay.”

“We are surrounded by the dry thorns of the Inquisition on all four sides; throwing around words burning like fire is the shortest way to one’s grave!”

“Flowers are like the sweet babies of the nature; they make us to smile.”

“My dear friend, to be both powerful and fair has always been difficult for mankind. Power and justice have always been seen like day and night; this being the case, when one of them is there the other disappears.”

“We live in a crowded and stifling world, my dear sir; just to be able to walk, we have to push and shove others willy nilly!”
