„The West is the fitting tomb for all the sorrow and the sighing, all the errors and the follies of the Past: for all its withered Hopes and all its buried Loves! From the East comes new strength, new ambition, new Hope, new Life, new Love! Look Eastward! Aye, look Eastward!“

— Lewis Carroll

„Fading, with the Night, the memory of a dead love, and the withered leaves of a blighted hope, and the sickly repinings and moody regrets that numb the best energies of the soul: and rising, broadening, rolling upward like a living flood, the manly resolve, and the dauntless will, and the heavenward gaze of faith — the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen!"Look Eastward! Aye, look Eastward!"“
— Lewis Carroll
„Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country.“
— Anaïs Nin
