Umberto Eco
  • There are more people than you think who want to have a challenging experience, in which they are obliged to reflect about the past.

  • Translation is the art of failure.

  • Nothing gives a fearful man more courage than another's fear.

  • Fear prophets and those prepared to die for the truth, for as a rule they make many others die with them, often before them, at times instead of them.

  • From lies to forgeries the step is not so long, and I have written technical essays on the logic of forgeries and on the influence of forgeries on history.
