Quote by Chloe Gong

“I would have found you anywhere.” He reached forward. Tugged that piece of her hair, then tucked the curl behind her ear. “Across the world and under it. No matter how well you hide. It doesn’t matter where you go. I’ll always find you. Understand?”

“Claims for compensation for physical damage through sterilization and for psychological damage through incarceration were not recognized for this reason. Claims for lost possessions were rejected on the basis of a wholesale prejudice that Gypsies did not own possessions. Claims for compensation for lost income on the basis of a reduction of earning capacity (as a result of physical and psychological damage and years lost due to imprisonment) were rejected on the grounds that Gypsies were unlikely to have sought employment even under more favourable circumstances. Like the German Jews, the Roms had been stripped of their citizenship rights by the Nazi regime's racist legislation.”

“There was every proof that the persecution and genocide against Romani minorities had been carried out on the basis of racial ideology. Nevertheless, many Roms encountered difficulties reclaiming their German citizenship. As a result they were also considered to be ineligible for compensation payments, which according to the West German compensation law could be made only to German citizens. By the time their citizenship had been reinstated and compensation claims were filed again, claimants were often informed that the deadline for submitting claims had passed.”

“«A questo punto mi pare evidente che il problema siamo noi, – fece uno degli scrittori, – intendo noi romani, la classe dirigente è lo specchio del nostro marciume, tutto è marcio, anche i turisti. Immaginate Roma libera dalla nostra presenza». «Sai che palle», disse la psicologa. «Immaginate questa città deserta, – continuò lo scrittore, – fatta soltanto di fontane, di porticati, di giardini, di basiliche, fatta di statue al centro delle piazze ma anche di lampioni, di ospedali, di tralicci, di radioline lasciate sui balconi. Bandite le persone, sarebbero le cose a dialogare finalmente tra di loro. In nessun luogo come a Roma, questo dialogo sarebbe più musicale, più ispirato, più fecondo, più denso di significato». «Ma che cazzo stai a di’?», rise di gusto l’architetto.”

“Roma me mostró las sorprendentes hazañas que pueden llevar a cabo los hombres de fe. Orar ante las tumbas de los santos y mártires, y estar en un lugar donde tanta gente ha vivido y ha muerto antes de mí, me hizo reflexionar sobre los constantes avisos de Nuestra Señora respecto a la brevedad de la vida en la tierra. Cuando llegas a conocer el Cielo, miras el mundo de un modo diferente. Entiendes que la vida en la tierra es sólo temporal y que la muerte no es un final. «Liberáos de todo lo que os ata solamente a las cosas terrenas y permitid que lo que es de Dios modele vuestra vida a través de la oración y el sacrificio».”
