I like the Albanians much; they are not all Turks; some tribes are Christians. But their religion makes little difference in their manner or conduct. They are esteemed the best troops in the Turkish service.

Lord Byron (1830), Letters and Journals of Lord Byron, page 161

They are strewn with the wreckage of dead Empires – past Powers – only the Albanian "goes on for ever."

— Edith Durham (1909), High Albania, page 12


  • Morn dawns: and with it stern Albania's hills...
    Robed half in mist, bedewed with snowy rills.

Albania is a much lighter Italy: in spirit, mind, state of mind.

It should not be forgotten that this is the only country in Europe (with Spain, but Spain was not at war and was not occupied by Nazi-fascists) where Jews were protected and adopted by Muslim and Christian families. This is a unique story: here in Albania, not a single Jew was handed over to the torturers of Auschwitz.

Albania is the only country with a partially Muslim but secularized population that expresses strong pro-American sentiment.
