More From Salvatore Quasimodo
- "Poetry is the revelation of a feeling that the poet believes to be interior and personal which the reader recognizes as his own."
- "He passes from lyric to epic poetry in order to speak about the world and the torment in the world through man, rationally and emotionally. The poet then becomes a danger."
- "In opposition to this detachment, he finds an image of man which contains within itself man’s dreams, man’s illness, man’s redemption from the misery of poverty – poverty which can no longer be for him a sign of the acceptance of life."
