     Kejser Nikolajs Tid, hvor Rusland laa stivnet som under et Isdække, tvang en Hjærnernes Kamp frem i de Lag, der endnu bevarede Tankeviljen fra de luftfriske Aar.

     The time of emperor Nikolaj, in which Russia was stiffened as under a cover of ice, forced a battle of the brains in those layers that retained the will of thought from the air-fresh years.

   • 192, Gudmund Schütte, Modersmaalets forsvarere og fjender

     Og Hjærnernes Klang er i Modersmaalet; / dets Tab uden Bod som vor Moders Røst, / dets Lys er som Luens af Arnebaalet, / dets Lyd er som Sangens ved Moders Bryst, ...

     And the refrain of the brains is in the native tongue; / its loss without compensation like our mother's voice, / its light is like that of the flame of the hearth-fire, / its sound is like that of the song at mother's breast, ...
