Se l'arte dell'eloquenza ? l'arte di persuadere, non vi ? altra eloquenza che quella di dire sempre il vero, il solo vero, il nudo vero. Le parole, onde ? necessit? di nostra inferma natura di rivestire il pensiero, saranno tanto pi? potenti, quanto pi? atte al fine, cio? pi? nudo lasceranno il vero, che ? nel pensiero.

Translation: If the art of eloquence is the art of persuading, there is no other eloquence but that of saying the truth, only the truth, the naked truth. Words, since it is a necessity of our infirm nature to clothe thought, will be the more powerful the more they are suited to their aim, that is the more naked they will leave the truth, which resides in thought.

Copiare il vero pu? essere una buona cosa, ma inventare il vero ? meglio, molto meglio.

 

Giuseppe Verdi

 

We [Emilio and I] fell in love with the Old World Florida ambience, beautiful beaches and warm people. We discovered Vero Beach when we were looking for a vacation home that was close to Miami but gave us a different feel than what we were used to. We hope to increase the awareness of Vero Beach by hightlighting the many wonderful things that made us fall in love with it. We want the rest of the world to realize what a gem this place is. We hope to welcome our friends from the entertainment world at the opening as well as members of the community. It will be a warm, special and intimate event. We will open our doors the same way that Vero Beach opened its doors to us.

che lume fia tra 'l vero e lo 'ntelletto.
Non so se 'ntendi; io dico di Beatrice.
