“Noi fummo i Gattopardi, i Leoni; quelli che ci sostituiranno saranno gli sciacalletti, le iene; e tutti quanti Gattopardi, sciacalli e pecore, continueremo a crederci il sale della terra.”
English translation:
“We were the Leopards, the Lions;
those who’ll take our place will be little jackals, hyenas;
and the whole lot of us,
Leopards, jackals, and sheep,
we’ll all go on thinking ourselves
the salt of the earth.”
—Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa.
