“I would describe the distinction between city and landscape like this: cities tend to excite and agitate me; they make me feel big or small, self-confident, proud, curious, excited, tense, annoyed... or they intimidate me. But the landscape, if I give it the chance, offers me freedom and serenity. Nature has a different sense of time. Time is big in the landscape while in the city it is condensed, just like the city's space.”
― Peter Zumthor, Thinking Architecture

“إن كان هواك أغلب عليك من أمر الله عز وجل فقد اتخذته إلهك، وكبّرته ولم تكبّر الله، وحوّلت قولك الله أكبر .. إلى حروف مجردة في باللسان، وقد تخلف القلب غن معناها”
