"Die Strasse schien kein Ende zu nehmen, eine breite Allee zwischen Steinmauern. Überall boten Tempel ihre steinernen Tore dar, kunstvoll gemeisselt und von einer Feinheit wie die Bayanbäume über ihnen. Die Dörfer bestanden aus Meilen von Mauern mit Reetdächern gegen den Regen, mit Hunderten von säulenbewehrten Portiken und Gruppen von Mädchen, die dort sassen. Jenseits der Schutzwände standen Häuser. Was waren das für Menschen? Was für ein Leben führten sie hinter den Umfriedungen?"Hickman Powell, The Last Paradise, 1930
