Infanzia E' il Regno Dove Nessuno Muore

“Childhood is not from birth to a certain age and at a certain age
The child is grown, and puts away childish things.
Childhood is the kingdom where nobody dies.

Nobody that matters, that is. Distant relatives of course
Die, whom one never has seen or has seen for an hour,
And they gave one candy in a pink-and-green stripéd bag, or a
jack-knife,
And went away, and cannot really be said to have lived at all..."

(Edna St. Vincent Millay, Childhood Is the Kingdom Where Nobody Dies)
