«Blindly destroying or passively preserving are – although with opposite appearances – the results of the same mental aridity: they are moral faults. Unfortunately, in the past and in the present days, the centers of many cities have suffered from one or the other calamity. So that their Heart has been mortally struck».
Distruggere ciecamente o conservare passivamente sono – sia pure con apparenze opposte – i risultati di una medesima aridità mentale: sono colpe morali. Purtroppo nel passato e nei giorni che viviamo i centri di molte città hanno sofferto dell’una o dell’altra calamità. Sicchè il loro Cuore ne è stato mortalmente colpito
Ernesto Nathan Rogers, 1951
«Blindly destroying or passively preserving are – although with opposite appearances – the results of the same mental aridity: they are moral faults. Unfortunately, in the past and in the present days, the centers of many cities have suffered from one or the other calamity. So that their Heart has been mortally struck».
