A room without books is like a body without a soul
The quote "A room without books is like a body without a soul" by Cicero means that books bring life, depth, and meaning to a space, just like a soul gives life to a body. Without books, a room feels empty or lifeless, lacking the knowledge, imagination, and spirit that books provide.

This quote means that the speaker can never have too much of the things they love—tea and books. It expresses a deep enjoyment and desire for more of the things that bring comfort and satisfaction, suggesting that there's always room for more of what makes life enjoyable.

My favourite quote by an Italian author
"La vita è sogno, e i sogni sono vita."
"Life is a dream, and dreams are life."
- Giovanni Pascoli
Pascoli says that life is like a dream, because everything happens so fast. But he also reminds us that dreams, desires and goals are what really give meaning to our lives. So, even though life is unpredictable, dreams help us to move forward and make it special.

My favourite quote by an ancient roman philosopher
Quote from Marcus Tullius Cicero
A room without books is like a body without a soul
I think that the meaning of this sentance is That a book tell an history and it also have a soul, For us a room without a book is strange which means that the person who live there doesn't like to read.
Gerard Casas

My favourite quote by an Italian author
"It happened, so it can happen again: this is the nucleus of what we have to say. »
(Primo LEVI, Les Naufragés et les Rescapés, 1986)
This sentence is a warning against forgetting. Primo Levi insists on the reproducible character of evil: "Shoah" is not an isolated aberration, but a historical reality which can happen if the societies do not remain vigilant.

My favourite quote by an Italian author is :
"Un linguaggio diverso è una diversa visione della vita."
By Federico Fellini
This quote means that each culture, each nation, sees the world in a different way. So that each people has a different opinion, a different belief.
And that's why it's so interesting to travel, in order to discover new way of thinking, of admiring the world.
"Ils ne savaient pas que c’était impossible, alors ils l’ont fait." by Mark Twain
This quote from Mark Twain means that sometimes, when you don't know that something is supposed to be too difficult or impossible, you try ... and you succeed.
It just shows that what blocks us most is not always the real obstacles, but what we think is impossible or too hard. In fact, if we stop telling ourselves that we can't do something, we're much more likely to succeed. It's a lesson in courage, self-confidence and the importance of trying, even if others think it's too hard.
My favourite quote by an English author
"Knowledge is power." (Francis Bacon )
To me, this quote means that knowledge gives you strength, freedom, and opportunities. When you learn, you become more independent and you understand the world better. You can make smarter decisions and stand up for your ideas. Knowledge is a peaceful form of power but a very strong one.

My favourite quote by an Italian author
« Il fine giustifica i mezzi. »
-Nicolas Machiavel
This means “The end justifies the means.”
It’s an idea from Machiavelli, an Italian thinker from the Renaissance. What it means is that sometimes, if the goal is really important, it might be okay to do things that are usually seen as wrong to reach it.
This quote shows how people sometimes put results above morals, especially when they have a lot of responsability.

My Favourite Quote
"You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams."
-Dr. Seuss
Meaning behind this is accurate and it makes everything going in my mind come to in one piece. We escape reality through dreams, but when we get something, like love we have something to be awake for. Dreams make us feel good for a while, but waking up to a empty reality is terrible. You know its love when something keeps you from falling asleep and waiting for the next day. SofiaP

"Books are mirrors: you only see in them what you already have inside you." — Carlos Ruiz Zafón (Anastasia Dobriak)
The quote "Books are mirrors: you only see in them what you already have inside you." means that when we read, we reflect our own emotions and experiences. Books are like mirrors, showing us our inner thoughts. Our feelings, life experiences, and perspectives influence how we interpret a story. This makes reading a personal experience, as each person sees something different in the same book. Books allow us to discover both the world and ourselves.
