“Asia is an entertainment, Europe is a dream, America is an imprisonment and Rest is a nightmare.”

“E non solo vale la pena di provare fino in fondo, ma è anche necessario. Se parole come «generosità» e «libertà» non esistono nel loro vocabolario, vuol dire che questi concetti non sono ancora nati nello spirito dell’Asia. Ma c’è voluto tempo prima di manifestarsi in Europa, quegli stessi concetti non esistevano nemmeno fra noi occidentali. C’è voluto tempo perché sfiorassero le nostre coscienze, e poi crescessero e vivessero nelle nostre azioni.”
