As a conclusion, some words from Philippe Sollers, regular of Venice, which he describes thus in his Dictionnaire amoureux de Venise:
Venice, that’s its secret, is an amplifier. If you are happy, you will be ten times more, unhappy, a hundred times more. It all depends on your inner disposition and your relationship to love. Love? Yes, and in all directions: angels and libertinage, architecture, painting, music, novel, poetry, but also air, stone, water, stars. Nature and culture finally equal. Venice is not a museum, but a constant creation. If you escape clichés, tourism, gossips ; if you managed to be really undercover here, then you know what the word paradise means. The world rushes to chaos, violence, terror, pornography, blind calculation, merchandisation all the time? But no, see, listen, read: here is the magical and future place of which all artists and free spirits testify.
