The granary of the spirit "I am in love with books. I love them for the knowledge they bestow, for the fragrance they release, for the rustle of their pages turned, which seems to caress the soul. Like Voltaire, I have a fondness for ancient volumes, and I cherish the words of their authors, whose wisdom is confirmed by the long endurance of their thought. Montesquieu once observed that until we have read all the old books, there is no reason to prefer the new; and sincerely, if I could always decide upon my own time, nothing would delight me more than to walk through the beautiful park of Solomeo in the evening, at sunset, when the air is finer and the spirit more inclined to wonder, strolling through what, to me, is a kind of paradise whilst reading passages from a beloved book. I cannot truly say which, among the many, is my most loved; yet it matters little, for any good book, as Montaigne believed, is the best provision for the human journey. And so, it is enough for me to hold a book—one that speaks directly to the heart, with simple words—where it is clear at once that the passage from the mind to the pen of the author was authentic".

Wow Wow Wow. This is sooo beautiful. I love the fusion of books & fashion together :) My mentor Dr. Daisaku ikeda says “The poetic mind is the source of human imagination and creativity. It imparts hope to our life, gives us dreams, and infuses us with courage; it makes possible harmony and unity and gives us the power, to transform our inner world from utter desolation to richness.”
Bravissimo
As an Eastern reader who has long been immersed in Mr. Cucinelli’s writings, I'd like to offer you all a Chinese proverb in this same spirit: "书中自有黄金屋，书中自有颜如玉" — In books, one finds houses of gold and faces of jade. Yet we understand these not as material treasures, but as metaphors for the spiritual richness and beauty that await those who engage sincerely with the past. May your journey through the pages remain a pilgrimage — and may our shared reverence for wisdom, whether Eastern or Western, remind us that although languages may differ, the soul’s yearning for truth is universal.😊
Meraviglioso ❤️
