Cesare Pavese Frases y Citas

“Con amor o con odio, pero siempre con violencia.”

Cesare Pavese

“Vendrá la muerte y tendrá tus ojos
esta muerte que nos acompaña
de la mañana a la noche, insomne,
sorda, como un viejo remordimiento
o un vicio absurdo. Tus ojos
serán una palabra vana,
un grito acallado, un silencio.
Así los ves cada mañana
cuando te inclinas sola ante el espejo.
Oh querida esperanza
también nosotros aquel día
sabremos que eres la vida y eres la nada!

La muerte tiene una mirada para todos.
Vendrá la muerte y tendrá tus ojos.
será como abandonar un vicio,
como ver que emerge de nuevo
un rostro muerto en el espejo,
como escuchar un labio cerrado.
Descenderemos, mudos, al abismo.”

Cesare Pavese

“He viajado lo suficiente por el mundo como para saber que todas las carnes son buenas y valen lo mismo, y eso es precisamente lo que estraga y por lo que uno busca echar raíces, hacerse tierra y pueblo, para que su carne tenga sentido y dure más que un triste cambio de estación.”

Cesare Pavese

“Una verdadera revelación, me parece a mí, sólo emergerá de la concentración obstinada sobre un problema solitario. No estoy aliado con inventores o aventureros, tampoco con viajeros en destinos exóticos. La manera más segura - y también la más rápida- de despertar el sentido de la maravilla en nosotros mismos es mirar resueltamente, sin detenernos, un simple objeto. De pronto, milagrosamente, se revelará a sí mismo como algo que nunca antes habíamos visto.”

Cesare Pavese

“The whole plain was like a battlefield—or a farmyard. There was a reddish light and I jumped down, cramped and stiff with cold; a sliver of moon was piercing the low clouds and it looked like a gash from a knife and bathed the plain in a blood-red light. I stayed looking at it for a while. It terrified me.”

“There is a reason why I came back to this place—came back here instead of to Canelli, Barbaresco or Alba. It is almost certain that I was not born here; where I was born I don't know. There is not a house or a bit of ground or a handful of dust hereabouts of which I can say: "This was me before I was born."”

“There is an art in taking the whiplash of suffering full in the face, an art you must learn. Let each single attack exhaust itself; pain always makes single attacks, so that its bite may be more intense, more concentrated. And you, while its fangs are implanted and injecting their venom at one spot, do not forget to offer it another place where it can bite you, and so relieve the pain of the first.”
