"Already Herodotus called our ancestors: "The immortal Dacians". Our Getothracian ancestors had as faith, even before Christianity, the immortality and indestructibility of the soul, which proves their orientation towards spirituality. Roman colonization added to this element the Roman spirit of organization and form. All the following centuries have made our people miserable and disintegrated: but just as the nobility of its breed can be recognized in a sick and frustrated horse, so too in what the Romanian people are yesterday and today we can recognize the latent elements of this double inheritance. (Corneliu Zelea Codreanu)"
