"This is cool. Irving is transporting me through a different world. From Selvilla to Granada in the early 19th century. Bandits roam the mountain passes and the peasants are poetic. The landscape has a hard beauty and the people a rugged grace. In Granada, and the next chapter, the Alhambra awaits. That last bastion of Islamic Spain, the stronghold of exiled Ummayyad princes; Andalusia." Jul 12, 2012 08:27AM

“No amount of guilt can change the past, and no amount of worrying can change the future. Go easy on yourself, for the outcome of all affairs is determined by Allaah’s decree.

If something is meant to go elsewhere, it will never come your way, but if it is yours by destiny, from it you cannot flee.”
Umar Ibn Al-Khattaab

Frantz Fanon
“Negrophobes exist. It is not hatred of the Negro, however, that motivates them; they lack the courage for that, or they have lost it. Hate is not inborn; it has to be constantly cultivated, to be brought into being, in conflict with more or less recognized guilt complexes. Hate demands existence and he who hates has to show his hate in appropriate actions and behavior; in a sense, he has to become hate. That is why Americans have substituted discrimination for lynching. Each to his own side of the street.”
Frantz Fanon, Black Skin, White Masks

Albert Einstein
“If at first the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it.”
Albert Einstein

David Mazzucchelli
“The way the function dictates the form... elegant lines... nothing extraneous... this shoe perfectly expresses the essence of shoeness.”
David Mazzucchelli, Asterios Polyp
