Quotes by Cesare Pavese

Hate is always a clash between our spirit and someone else's body.
No one ever lacks a good reason for suicide.
At great periods you have always felt, deep within you, the temptation to commit suicide. You gave yourself to it, breached your own defenses. You were a child. The idea of suicide was a protest against life; by dying, you would escape this longing for death.
Life is pain and the enjoyment of love is an anesthetic.
