Tra le virtù del barcaiolo questa era una delle più grandi: sapeva ascoltare come pochi. […] Prima di tutto apprese da lui ad ascoltare, a porger l’orecchio con animo tranquillo, con l’anima aperta, in attesa senza passione, senza desiderio, senza giudicare, senza opinioni.
Da Siddharta di Herman Hesse.
I don’t know what the post all says in Italian, but Herman Hesse is great. Don’t forget ‘Narziss and Goldmund’ and ‘Steppenwolf’ from the same author.

Hi Danny, welcome here. I’m sorry but my blog is only in italian.. and I think I’ll not able to write in english correctly.
I love Herman Hesse since I was very young.
You speak about "Narziss and Goldmund" that in italian is "Narciso e Boccadoro" and "Steppenwolf" is "Il lupo della steppa".
I haven’t read "Steppenwolf", but I’ll do it next weeks.
… try to translate blog with Google, it’s not so good, but it’s a first step…
