It is therefore important, as argued by Peppino Impastato, who has always rejected the idea of ​​becoming accustomed to "ugliness", to educate children to "beauty": "...It is for this reason that people should be educated to beauty: because in men and women, let habit and resignation no longer creep in [...]
