  4. “Europe will not be made all at once, or according to a single plan. It will be built through concrete achievements which first create a de facto solidarity.”
    Cheers to Schumann, the time traveller.

  6. Yesterday we celebrated the 80th anniversary of the end of WWII. Today we celebrate the 75th “birthday” of a united Europe.

    Five years can make all the difference.

    Regardless of how dark and gloomy things may seem, there’s always a chance for radical change. What it takes is for people to believe in a better future and for them to act on this belief.

  7. I hope one day we will celebrate a united world 🥰 this was a first step forward

  8. In my opinion, Europe’s Day should be a public holiday in all the EU. That would give way more visibility to the celebration.

    Btw, I have hung my EU flag on the balcony to do my part

  9. O lijepa, o draga, o slatka slobodo,
    dar u kom sva blaga višnji nam bog je dô,
    uzroče istini od naše sve slave,
    uresu jedini od ove Dubrave,
    sva srebra, sva zlata, svi ljudcki životi
    ne mogu bit plata tvôj čistoj ljepoti!

    (O beautiful, O dear, O sweet freedom,
    a gift in which all treasures the Most High God has bestowed upon us,
    the cause of truth from all our glory,
    the only ornament of this Dubrava, all silver, all gold,
    all human lives cannot be the price for your pure beauty!)

  10. Thank you. There’s also a speech from Churchill about Europe.

  11. When does May 9 become a national holiday in all EU countries?!

  12. In these uncertain times Europe is what gives me hope for humanity and our future. Happy Europe Day!
