Luigi Pirandello (1867 - 1936)

"When I am dead, do not clothe me. Wrap me naked in a sheet. No flowers on the bed and no lighted candle. A pauper's cart. Naked. And let no one accompany me, neither relatives nor friends. The cart, the horse, the coachmen, e basta. Burn me."

"I have tried to tell something to other men, without any ambition, except perhaps that of avenging myself for having been born."
