Mehmet Murat ildan
“When we look at a perfect cathedral, two different emotions emerge in us: On the one hand, the feeling of admiration for the architect and the workers who built this cathedral; on the other hand, the feeling of great anger for those who spent so much money on this cathedral, instead of spending this money for the hungry people who can't even find bread!”
Mehmet Murat ildan

Diana Abu-Jaber
“Avis named her business Paradise Pastry because she imagined cathedrals. She thought about the stonemasons, glassblowers, sculptors- who gave lifetimes to the creation of beauty. Every sugar crust she rolled, every simple 'tarte Tatin' was a bit of a church. She consecrated herself to it: later, it became her tribute to her daughter and the unknown into which she'd disappeared. She had her cathedral to enter, to console her. Her friend Jean-Francoise, chef at La Petit Choux, said that her pastries would be transcendent, if only she wasn't American.”
Diana Abu-Jaber, Birds of Paradise
