“… [en terre d’Islam, ] la distinction entre le sacré et le profane n’existe normalement que dans l’usage que l’on fait des œuvres d’art et non dans leurs formes : une maison n’est pas bâtie dans un style différent de celui d’une mosquée.”

À propos du débat Minaret de la discorde.

I actually think there's actually very little distinction between an artist and a scientist or engineer of the highest calibre. I've never had a distinction in my mind between those two types of people. They've just been to me people who pursue different paths but basically kind of headed to the same goal which is to express something of what they perceive to be the truth around them so that others can benefit by it.
