Italo Calvino quoteItalo Calvino [1923-1985] Italian Journalist
Quote rank: 112



How much energy is wasted in Italy in trying to write the novel that obeys all the rules. The energy might have been useful to provide us with more modest, more genuine things, that had less pretensions: short stories, memoirs, notes, testimonials, or at any rate, books that are open, without a preconceived plan.
