“In 1978 zip or postcodes were introduced in the Netherlands; they consist of four numbers followed by a space and then to capital letters and are replaced before the name of the town... they referred to the city block in a given street in which the house occurs and thus the Dutch postal code book is the size of a telephone book.”

“De hemel groots en grauw.
daaronder het geweldig laagland met de plassen;
bomen en molens, kerktorens en kassen,
verkaveld door de sloten, zilvergrauw.
dit is mijn land, mijn volk;
dit is de ruimte waarin ik wil klinken.
laat mij één avond in de plassen blinken,
daarna mag ik verdampen als een wolk.”
