[EX Q]: When we are compelled literally to humiliate theatre groups, young musicians, pioneering activities in the arts, writers, to humiliate them and send them packing with a slap on the back and thirty rejection slips in such a way that they begin to perceive Europe as something foreign, something opposed, contrary and hostile to any effort towards cultural creativity - an area in which the European Union should make its presence felt because our mission is not just the euro, not just enlargement, nor geostrategic expedients, but also to encourage culture to flower in this affair of European Unification - then this is indeed a sorry way to end.

Porque nuestra senda no es sólo la senda del euro, no es sólo la ampliación y los intereses geoestratégicos; nuestra senda es darle un horizonte cultural a la causa de la construcción europea.
