"Moreover, you scorned our people, and compared the Albanese to sheep, and according to your custom think of us with insults. Nor have you shown yourself to have any knowledge of my race. Our elders were Epirotes, where this Pirro came from, whose force could scarcely support the Romans. This Pirro, who Taranto and many other places of Italy held back with armies. I do not have to speak for the Epiroti. They are very much stronger men than your Tarantini, a species of wet men who are born only to fish. If you want to say that Albania is part of Macedonia I would concede that a lot more of our ancestors were nobles who went as far as India under Alexander the Great and defeated all those peoples with incredible difficulty. From those men come these who you called sheep. But the nature of things is not changed. Why do your men run away in the faces of sheep?"
Letter from Skanderbeg to the Prince of Taranto ▬ Skanderbeg, October 31 1460

Lord Byron, poema e tij "Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage" dhe proza qe e shoqeron
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shume te huaj kishin per Ballkanin nje kendveshtrim te paracaktuar prej studimeve te tyre ne "The Classics(nder te tjere Plutarch dhe Pausanias)".
Lord Byron ngrihet kunder ketij kendveshtrimi, bazuar ne realitetin qe pa gjate qendrimit te tij ne Shqiperi. Po citoj pjese(nga fleta nr.32, ngjitur) nga libri "Byron and Place - Stephen Cheeke".

----- nga fleta nr. 32 -------

Rrefimi i Lord Byron tregon se kemi te bejme me nje kerkim te fakteve, "ne vend"(on the spot), me kujdes, kryer nga nje udhetar shume i mesuar ne "The Classics" dhe qe njihte mire gjuhet.

" . . . une shoh ketu vende pa emer dhe lumej qe nuk jane ne harte . . . keto ofrojne "ndryshe" nga sa shkruhet ne librat e historise . . ."
" . . . keto tregojne qe sjelljet e klasicisteve . . . perbejne shtremberim, distancim nga realiteti . . . "

" . . . me te drejte Albania, nje vend me identitetin dhe kulturen e vet unike kombetare . . . eshte nje sfide e forte per perqafuesit e idese se mbizoterimit kulturor te te tjereve ne rajon".

Ky perfundim eshte bazuar ne faktin e te qendruarit ne vend, ne "Albania", vete.
