"Fifty years ago, though Tainan had less than 200,000 people, there was an art museum and also a product exhibition hall. Today, Tainan, which claims to be 'a venerable center of culture,' has more than 700,000 people, but not one decent art museum."
「五十年前，台南市人口雖不滿二十萬，卻有博物館和商品陳列館；如今，號稱『文化古都』的台南市，人口已達七十餘萬，卻連個像樣的美術館都沒有。」
