Quotes
- “Revenir souvent ici (sur le lac de Côme) est comme une goutte de poison ; ça donne envie de ne jamais partir.”
- “(Le Centre du Lac) … et le hardi promontoire qui sépare les deux branches du lac, celle de Come, si voluptuense et celle qui court vers Lecco, plein de sévérité; aspect sublime et gracieux, que le site le plus renommé du monde, la baie de Naples, égale, mais ne surpasse point...”
- “Presque tous les malheurs de la vie viennent des fausses idées que nous avons sur ce qui nous arrive. Connaître à fond les hommes, juger sainement des événements, est donc un grand pas vers le bonheur.”
- “Je ne vois qu'une règle: être clair. Si je ne suis pas clair, tout mon monde est anéanti.”
- “Le même esprit ne dure que deux cents ans.”
- “Ce sera la noblesse de leur style qui, dans quarante ans, rendra illisibles nos écrivains de 1840.”
