There are words that we are usually afraid to use and say. Death and life are part of them. I was watching a speech made by one of the most famous actor in Italy, Roberto Benigni, who won also an Oscar for the film "Life is Beautiful" (the video of the price-giving on the left). He was saying that no matter how but we must dream. We must have a dream to achieve. Talking about the unification of Italy he passed through the story of the men who made my country finally free. The feeling that inspired those young patriots told me that something as to change in this world. We need the bravery to say stop to abuse, the bravery to face the power that manages our life and us. Find in our self a fire able to conquer everything and everyone as it happened in the past.
The sensation that this monologue gave me it's something strange as a sleepy force was waiting the moment to wake up and tells me that we have it. Goose bump and tears are the consequentially reaction to this kind of powerful sentences. But after a while I wondered if I would be as incredibly courageous as those guys who changed radically the Italian history. I realized that maybe I won't be able to face an army but I’ll be able to contrast the wrongful power with my pen, pardon with my keyboard. "Cause when a man with a gun faces a man with a biro, the man with a gun is a dead man.".(Roberto Benigni)
