"dit was ´n plek waarin smerigheid, die stank van armoede, die oop riole, die ontbindende verrotting, die malende skare van misrabele armsaliges, die nimmereindige beelde van ´n landskap gestrooi met agterlosig neergesmyte vullis ´n aansig aangeneem het wat noodsaaklik skyn te gewees het om die skoonheid van ´n ander wêreld vol netjiese strate, boomryke lane, en bloeisels teen die groen, singende gras en voëls en huise geskik vir konings en koninginne, en liriese musiek, en liefde te beklemtoon.
