Quotes by Umberto Eco: The complete collection of over 350 quotes

By: Regan, Lilith

The real hero is always a hero by mistake; he dreams of being an honest coward like everybody else.Nothing gives a fearful man more courage than another's fear.Translation is the art of failure.The comic is the perception of the opposite; humor is the feeling of it.A dream is a scripture, and many scriptures are nothing but dreams.I would define the poetic effect as the capacity that a text displays for continuing to generate different readings, without ever being completely consumed.Fear prophets and those prepared to die for the truth, for as a rule they make many others die with them, often before them, at times instead of them.I felt like poisoning a monk.When men stop believing in God, it isn't that they then believe in nothing: they believe in everything.Books are not made to be believed, but to be subjected to inquiry.
