Quotation of the day #10:

Semantically the concept of borders cuts both ways – it refers to the embodiment of differene, as well as the constitutive difference itself. Alternatively it can also be conceptualized as the third space – a vantage point from which differences can be observed critically.

Quotation of the day #9:

Border is an indicator of the warfare where the incomprehensible fights the inconceivable.

Quotation of the day #5

There is no problem of integrating the newcomers, there is a problem of integrating the locals.

Quotation of the day #4:

Analyzing borders is necessary for understanding the core of Europe, not its periphery.

Quotation of day #3

We didn’t cross border. The border crossed us.

Quotation of the day #2:

The bricks from the fallen walls become the bedrocks for new ones: from Berlin wall to Schengen wall and further to Europe of walls.

Quotation of day #1

Every border is a difference, but not every difference is a border.
