Quote by Italo Calvino

Traveling, you realize that differences are lost: each city takes to resembling all cities, places exchange their form, order, distances, a shapeless dust cloud invades the continents.


Traveling, you realize that differences are lost: each city

Summary

This quote suggests that the more one travels, the more they recognize the disappearance of unique differences among cities. Each city becomes increasingly similar to others, eliminating their distinctiveness. Places lose their individuality, with their form, arrangement, and distances becoming indistinguishable. The quote also metaphorically describes this process as a shapeless dust cloud, further emphasizing the amalgamation and homogeneity of continents through travel.
