“In Switzerland, there’s a very different system. Capital investment in railways comes from the infrastructure fund, written into law. … It’s long-term, it’s guaranteed and it comes with a specific obligation: capital investment in new infrastructure has to happen every year.”

The roof of the library of the University of Basel, seen from the botanical garden (where I also have a set of pics coming up..). Architect: Otto Heinrich Senn 1962–1968.

Founded in 1471, the university library is one of the oldest in Europe and It's quite popular among Nietzsche fans. 😉
