There was not a single moment when it was necessary to seek for a subject of conversation; on the contrary one felt that there was not time enough to say what one wanted to say, but willingly refrained in order to hear what she was saying.
Non solo non c’era un attimo in cui bisognasse cercare l’argomento per discorrere, ma, al contrario, si sentiva che non c’era il tempo di dire quello che si voleva, e che volentieri ci si tratteneva ad ascoltare quello che l’altro diceva.
