A dialogue between Marco Polo and the Kublai Khan

Posted: December 21st, 2008 | Author: admin | Filed under: Links & quotations | No Comments »

Forse l’impero, penso Kublai, non è altro che uno zodiaco di fantasmi della mente.
“Il giorno in cui conoscerò tutti gli emblemi” chiese a Marco “riuscirò a possedere il mio impero, finalmente?”
E il veneziano: “Sire, non lo credere: quel giorno sarai tu stesso emblema tra gli emblemi.”

Da Le città invisibili di Calvino.
