"Il tempo dell'attesa descritto nel volume "Fidanzamento e Matrimonio" fu scandito da un fitto scambio di corrispondenza tra Bruno e Susanna. Non esisteva la posta elettronica e, men che meno, le chat e i telefoni cellulari. Anche la teleselezione muoveva i primi passi e le chiamate interurbane erano costose e non sempre ben funzionanti. Di conseguenza ad ogni distacco il modo migliore per restare in contatto era di scriversi. Ciò avveniva per lo più d'estate, quando Bruno, che aveva poche ferie, restava a Milano e Susanna, ancora studentessa, seguiva i genitori in Sardegna. Ma anche di inverno e nelle altre stagioni vi furono occasioni per scriversi, dalla montagna, da Sestri Levante o dall'estero. Ora, a cinquant'anni di distanza, quelle difficoltà tecniche di comunicazione ci appaiono benedette: solo grazie ad esse oggi conserviamo intatto il tesoro delle nostre "lettere d'amore", attraverso le quali chi legge viene trasportato direttamente dentro ai nostri sentimenti."

"Dall'autunno del 1972 alla primavera del 1976 per me e Susanna fu il tempo dell'attesa. Dopo aver preso la decisione di sposarci, dovemmo attendere più di tre anni per poter concretizzare il nostro sogno. Quando iniziò la nostra relazione Susanna aveva diciotto anni e non si era ancora diplomata, io ne avevo ventitré e stavo svolgendo il mio servizio militare. Nel 1973 mi congedai e iniziai a lavorare al Credito Italiano. Dovemmo affrontare momenti di lontananza durante le vacanze estive e invernali. Superammo tutto con l'entusiasmo che la prospettiva della nuova vita ci infondeva. Iniziammo ad arredare l'appartamento che per trentasette anni sarebbe stato la nostra casa (e dove sarebbero nati e cresciuti i nostri figli) e, finalmente, il 12 maggio 1976 ci sposammo. Susanna era al terzo anno di università e io lavoravo in banca, ma i sogni e le ambizioni non ci mancavano! Finita la gioventù iniziava la vita nuova."
