Nebyli jsme jednotní, a proto jsme byli porobeni. Tak zní tragický epitaf dvou válečných generací. Jen tato slova a nic víc by měla ozdobit hrob evropského mládí.

We, being Europeans, conscious of a tradition which derives from classic Greece and Rome, and of a civilization which during three thousand years has given thought, beauty, science and leadership to mankind, and feeling for each other the close relationship of a great family whose quarrels in the past have proved the heroism of our peoples but whose division in the future would threaten the life of our continent with the same destruction which extinguished the genius of Hellas and led to the triumph of alien values, (more…)
