“I read, much of the night, and go south in the winter.”
“The sparrow flies south for the winter.”
“You are about to begin reading Italo Calvino's new novel, If on a winter's night a traveler.”
“A one-winged bird does not fly south for the winter. It flies south, west, north, and east, over and over. That’s how I feel when I’m in love, only I walk.”
“In winter I get up at night,and dress by yellow candlelight,In summer, quite the other day,I have to go to bed by day”
“In this little night-covered world with you, I hope to find what I long for; a clue, a map, a bird flying south, and when the light comes we will get dressed together and go.”
