“L'humanisme de la Renaissance se pr茅sente comme le dialogue de Rome avec Rome, de la Rome pa茂enne avec la Rome du Christ, de la civilisation antique avec la civilisation chr茅tienne. Assur茅ment, l'un des plus riches dialogues - jamais interrompu - qu'ait connu l'Occident.”

“When the [colonial] contact was violent, in fact, failure was more frequent than success. 'Colonialism' may have triumphed in the past: but today it is an obvious fiasco.
