Famous quotes containing the word italy:

    “I think sometimes that it is almost a pity to enjoy Italy as much as I do, because the acuteness of my sensations makes them rather exhausting; but when I see the stupid Italians I have met here, completely insensitive to their surroundings, and ignorant of the treasures of art and history among which they have grown up, I begin to think it is better to be an American, and bring to it all a mind and eye unblunted by custom.”
    —Edith Wharton (1862–1937)

    “Lump the whole thing! Say that the Creator made Italy from designs by Michael Angelo!”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
