1 " Constantinople, even the most diffident traveller is certain of his facts; no one has ever been deceived, and there are none of the fascinations of great memories and the habit of admiration. It is one universal and sovereign beauty, before which poet and archeologist, ambassador and trader, prince and sailor, sons of the north and daughters of the south, all are overcome with wonder. It is the most beautiful spot on the earth, and so judged by all the world. "
― Edmondo de Amicis , Constantinople
