My grandfather lived to be 96 years old. He was born in a town outside of Salerno in Southern Italy. He came to New York when he was 20. He lived in the States from age 20 to 96, but he brought his culture with him, he brought his food with him, he brought his language with him, he never spoke a word of English. ~ Abel Ferrara
Aliano Italy quotes by Abel Ferrara
Leslie Stephen died in 1904. In that year his children retreated to Wales for a period and then travelled in Italy. Vanessa and Virginia went on to Paris, where they met up with Clive Bell. On returning to London, Virginia suffered
a severe, suicidal breakdown. ~ Jane Goldman
Aliano Italy quotes by Jane Goldman
My favourite setting is Italy, specifically Venice, because it is there that I met my husband, who is Venetian. I used it as the setting for Virtue and Vice, Enchantment in Venice, and Seduced by Innocence. Apart from Venice, my favourite city is Rome. ~ Lucy Gordon
Aliano Italy quotes by Lucy Gordon
Rick Perry is qualified to be President in the same way that Olive Garden is qualified to be Italy. ~ Andy Borowitz
Aliano Italy quotes by Andy Borowitz

Aliano Italy quotes by Donald Trump
Italy will always have the best food. ~ Diane Von Furstenberg
Aliano Italy quotes by Diane Von Furstenberg
If countries were people, England and France would be old men. Italy would be dead. Compared with them, America is in its 20s. ~ Will.i.am
Aliano Italy quotes by Will.i.am
Polenta is to northern Italy what bread is to Tuscany, what pasta is to Emilia-Romagna and what rice is to the Veneto: easy to make, hungry to absorb other flavours, and hugely versatile. ~ Yotam Ottolenghi
Aliano Italy quotes by Yotam Ottolenghi
In Italy it's full-on stardom when you're a cyclist - eating in restaurants for free, it's great. ~ David Millar
Aliano Italy quotes by David Millar
Unlike Milan, Italy's banking capital, or Rome, its religious center, Florence was the place where the rich went to buy goods that would showcase how wealthy they were. ~ Hanya Yanagihara
Aliano Italy quotes by Hanya Yanagihara
My brother and I have matching tattoos on our arms. It says, 'Humility is strength,' in Portuguese and Italian, because my genius brother taught English in both Italy and Brazil. ~ Nikki Reed
Aliano Italy quotes by Nikki Reed
As the sun rose I could see Etna, a truncated cone with a plume of smoke over it like the quill of a pen stuck in a pewter inkpot, rising out of the haze to the north of where I was treading water. ~ Eric Newby
Aliano Italy quotes by Eric Newby
Kosovo is too close to Europe. It is not only close to Albania, it is close to Greece, Italy, Germany and Switzerland, where there are still many Kosovo refugees. Spontaneous reactions could multiply. ~ Fatos Nano
Aliano Italy quotes by Fatos Nano
France and Italy have not yet signed this treaty or agreed to naval limitation as between those nations, but I have confidence that in time they will do so. ~ Frank B. Kellogg
Aliano Italy quotes by Frank B. Kellogg
Buffalo Soldiers in Italy: Black Americans in World War II ~ Charles M. Blow
Aliano Italy quotes by Charles M. Blow
I'm not a sports guy. However it's interesting to be in a place where people have a sporting fever. One time I was in Italy during one of the European soccer cups, and it's interesting because it's so electrifying. ~ Ian MacKaye
Aliano Italy quotes by Ian MacKaye
Benito Mussolini had barely seized power in Italy before the Vatican made an official treaty with him ... Catholicism became the only recognized religion in Italy ... and in return urged its followers to vote for Mussolini's party. Pope Pius XI described [Mussolini] as 'a man sent by providence.' ... Across southern Europe, the church was a reliable ally in the instatement of fascist regimes ... ~ Christopher Hitchens
Aliano Italy quotes by Christopher Hitchens
The sun woke Tino early this beautiful morning in his small Italian village. ~ Tonya Russo Hamilton
Aliano Italy quotes by Tonya Russo Hamilton
Sonia met my eyes in the mirror. 'You know, people come to Italy for all sorts of reasons, but when they stay its for the same two things.' 'What?' 'Love and gelato.' 'Amen,' Howard said. ~ Jenna Evans Welch
Aliano Italy quotes by Jenna Evans Welch
The 'classic' pig is inspired by northern Italy. It is made up of meat and fat, rosemary and garlic, salt and lots of black pepper. ~ Bill Buford
Aliano Italy quotes by Bill Buford
I find it beautiful when we're in Italy that everybody sits down at the table together. My mother-in-law is like, 'It doesn't matter what's going on in the house, who is fighting, who is upset, who has appointments, you sit down at that table at one o'clock.' ~ Debi Mazar
Aliano Italy quotes by Debi Mazar
When we were first together, when you first brought me here to this beautiful place, you used to say you were glad you found a napoletana, remember? You said the northerners were sane and orderly and hardworking and maybe more honest, but that without the south, Italy would have too many brains and not enough heart. It would be like Europe having only Germany and Austria - no Spain, no France, no Italy. It would be a world of scientists without singers. I thought it was romantic. What happened to the man who said those things? ~ Roland Merullo
Aliano Italy quotes by Roland Merullo
It's easy to understand why the most beautiful poems about England in the spring were written by poets living in Italy at the time. ~ Philip Dunne
Aliano Italy quotes by Philip Dunne
Italy is a geographical expression. ~ Prince Metternich
Aliano Italy quotes by Prince Metternich
I'm definitely looking forward to the day when I stop working - if I ever stop working. I like the idea of keeling over in my tomato vines in Sardinia or northern Italy. ~ Anthony Bourdain
Aliano Italy quotes by Anthony Bourdain
Do not laugh! But once upon a time (my crest has long since fallen) I had a mind to make a body of more or less connected legend, ranging from the large and cosmogonic, to the level of romantic fairy-story – the larger founded on the lesser in contact with the earth, the lesser drawing splendour from the vast backcloths – which I could dedicate simply to: to England; to my country. It should possess the tone and quality that I desired, somewhat cool and clear, be redolent of our 'air' (the clime and soil of the North West, meaning Britain and the hither parts of Europe: not Italy or the Aegean, still less the East), and, while possessing (if I could achieve it) the fair elusive beauty that some call Celtic (though it is rarely found in genuine ancient Celtic things), it should be 'high', purged of the gross, and fit for the more adult mind of a land long now steeped in poetry. I would draw some of the great tales in fullness, and leave many only placed in the scheme, and sketched. The cycles should be linked to a majestic whole, and yet leave scope for other minds and hands, wielding paint and music and drama. Absurd.

Of course, such an overweening purpose did not develop all at once. The mere stories were the thing. They arose in my mind as 'given' things, and as they came, separately, so too the links grew. An absorbing, though continually interrupted labour (especially since, even apart from the necessities of life, the mind would wing to the other pole and spen ~ J.R.R. Tolkien
Aliano Italy quotes by J.R.R. Tolkien
When I first discovered in the early 1980s the Italian espresso bars in my trip to Italy, the vision was to re-create that for America - a third place that had not existed before. Starbucks re-created that in America in our own image; a place to go other than home or work. We also created an industry that did not exist: specialty coffee. ~ Howard Schultz
Aliano Italy quotes by Howard Schultz
Josey was a different person than she was even a month ago. She reminded Margaret so much now of Marco's cousins from Italy. They'd shown up in Bald Slope without warning once, early in Marco and Margaret's wedding. They were magical women, with their long curly hair, large breasts and movements like dancers. Their bracelets sounded like wind chimes when they walked. Margaret had been fascinated by them. Marco had ushered them out within hours of their arrival and taken them to Asheville for their stay. He was ashamed of them, their earthiness and sensuality, of their provincial ways. No one from Italy ever visited again. ~ Sarah Addison Allen
Aliano Italy quotes by Sarah Addison Allen
Instructions for a Broken Heart
I will find a bare patch of earth, somewhere where the ruins have fallen away, somewhere where I can fit both hands, and I will dig a hole.
And into that hole, I will scream you, I will dump all the shadow places of my heart - the times you didn't call when you said you'd call, the way you only half listened to my poems, your eyes on people coming through the swinging door of the café - not on me - your ears, not really turned toward me. For all those times I started to tell you about the fight with my dad or when my grandma died, and you said something about your car, something about the math test you flunked, as an answer. I will scream into that hole the silence of dark nights after you'd kissed me, how when I asked if something was wrong - and something was obviously so very wrong - how you said "nothing," how you didn't tell me until I had to see it in the dim light of a costume barn - so much wrong. I will scream all of it.
Then I will fill it in with dark earth, leave it here in Italy, so there will be an ocean between the hole and me.
Because then I can bring home a heart full of the light patches. A heart that sees the sunset you saw that night outside of Taco Bell, the way you pointed out that it made the trees seem on fire, a heart that holds the time your little brother fell on his bike at the fairgrounds and you had pockets full of bright colored Band-Aids and you kissed the bare skin of his knees. I will take t ~ Kim Culbertson
Aliano Italy quotes by Kim Culbertson
In Europe, where human relations like clothes are supposed to last, one's got to be wearable. In France one has to be interesting, in Italy pleasant, in England one has to fit. ~ Sybille Bedford
Aliano Italy quotes by Sybille Bedford
Just calm down and think, sir. Think. Where is your wife? ~ Stefania Mattana
Aliano Italy quotes by Stefania Mattana
I picked up a snake once. In Italy."
"Why did you do that?"
"For a bet."
"Was it poisonous?"
"We didn't know. That was the point of the bet."
"Did it bite you?"
"Of course."
"Why of course?"
"It wouldn't be much of a story, would it? If I'd put it down unharmed, and away it slid? ~ Hilary Mantel
Aliano Italy quotes by Hilary Mantel
Italy in the first years got food, for the first year or the first periods got food. Then we got raw materials and then we got tool machines, let's say, instruments for working. ~ Gianni Agnelli
Aliano Italy quotes by Gianni Agnelli
California is an Italy without its art. ~ Oscar Wilde
Aliano Italy quotes by Oscar Wilde
I've been influenced by some of the greatest designers. Charles Eames. And Bruno Munari in the '50s in Italy - when they had to retool the industry of war into an industry to help society. In a way, I'm influenced by designers that were there at a radical time of change. ~ Yves Behar
Aliano Italy quotes by Yves Behar
I'd rather not have an address in France but an address in Italy because I love the country. ~ Gerard Depardieu
Aliano Italy quotes by Gerard Depardieu
I'm involved with a baroque opera company here in Italy. I write some of their booklet material, comments on operas. I also write for some baroque opera festivals because this music is my real passion. ~ Donna Leon
Aliano Italy quotes by Donna Leon
Free speech isn't dead in Germany and Italy, merely the speakers ... ~ Bob Hope
Aliano Italy quotes by Bob Hope
I've always been very interested in political violence. When I finished high school, I did a small dissertation about political violence and fascism in Italy. ~ Loretta Napoleoni
Aliano Italy quotes by Loretta Napoleoni
We had never before been to Italy in May, and it is truly the most wonderful month. The Lucchese countryside is a riot of colour and scent. Every road, even the busy autostrada, is lined with brilliant red poppies, making the most mundane street look picturesque. The olive trees dotting the hills are covered with silvery green and the pale cream of new buds, while the grass is tall and soft, every patch threaded with wildflowers. ~ Louise Badger
Aliano Italy quotes by Louise Badger
