"Non c’è viaggio senza che si attraversino frontiere – politiche, linguistiche, sociali, culturali, psicologiche, anche quelle invisibili che separano un quartiere da un altro nella stessa città , quelle tra le persone, quelle tortuose che nei nostri inferi sbarrano la strada a noi stessi. Oltrepassare frontiere; anche amarle – in quanto definiscono una realtà , un’individualità , le danno forma, salvandola così dall’indistinto. [...] Viaggiare non vuol dire soltanto andare dall’altra parte della frontiera, ma anche scoprire di essere sempre pure dall’altra parte."
Claudio Magris
"There is no journey without we cross borders - political, linguistic, social, cultural, psychological, even the invisible ones that separate one area from another in the same city, among those people, those twisting that in our hells bar the way to ourselves. Crossing borders, even love them - as they define a reality, individuality, the shape, thus saving it from indistinct. [...] Traveling is not just go across the border, but also discover to always be on the other side as well. "
