Call me by the old familiar name.
Speak of me in the easy way which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together...
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
(Henry Scott Holland, da Death is nothing at all)
Ci terremo semplicemente per mano e andremo con passo leggero, dicendo cose insensate, stupide e care.
(Dino Buzzati, da Inviti superflui)
