Hope cannot be said to exist, nor can it be said not to exist. It is just like roads across the earth. For actually the earth had no roads to begin with, but when many men pass one way, a road is made. — Lu Xun, My Old Home . Translated by Yang Xianyi 希望是本无所谓有，无所谓无的。这正如地上的路； 其实地上本没有路，走的人多了，也便成了路。 ——鲁迅《故乡》

Da una parte all’altra la città sembra continui in prospettiva moltiplicando il suo repertorio d’immagini: invece non ha spessore, consiste solo in un dritto e in un rovescio, come un foglio di carta, con una figura di qua e una di là, che non possono staccarsi né guardarsi. — Italo Calvino, Le città invisibili
From one part to the other, the city seems to continue, in perspective, multiplying its repertory of images: but instead it has no thickness, it consists only of a face and an obverse, like a sheet of paper, with a figure on either side, which can neither be separated nor look at each other. — Italo Calvino, Invisible Cities.
