"Paradise of Exiles. This phrase, which the poet Shelley coined, sums up an idea of Florence that has been floating around for at least 200 years: the idea of a city where the outcast foreigner, merely by virtue of living in proximity to glorious works of Renaissance art, can experience a renaissance of his own." - Novelist David Leavitt
