殖民地是一个新人类计划将被测试的地方，在那里一个无国界、无种族、无国家、无阶级、无性别、无宗教、无货币、无财产和无战争世界的梦想将被实现。
"The colony is the place where the project of a new humanity is to be tested, where the dream of a world without borders is to be realized, where the dream of a world without races is to be realized, where the dream of a world without nations is to be realized, where the dream of a world without classes is to be realized, where the dream of a world without genders is to be realized, where the dream of a world without religions is to be realized, where the dream of a world without money is to be realized, where the dream of a world without property is to be realized, where the dream of a world without war is to be realized."
