Motto: Show me a person who has no native region. This person, if he is indeed a creature of tangible features, would certainly have been somehow robbed by fate! I would more likely know people who have several native regions, in fact wherever they have spent a little time, since people are adaptable that way. They are always wholly capable of attachment, growth and, of course fanaticism, becoming fond of everything that they have been joined with in life. (Josef Čapek, Native Regions, 1939)
