“Nobody ever wanted to go to war, but if a war came your way, it might as well be the right war, about the most important things in the world, and you might as well, if you were going to fight it, be called "Rushdie," and stand where your father had placed you, in the tradition of the grand Aristotelian, Averroës, Abul Walid Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Rushd.”
Salman Rushdie, Joseph Anton: A Memoir

Henry Corbin
“On a fait allusion (...) à la présence d'Ibn'Arabî assistant au transfert des cendres d'Averroës à Cordoue. Le souvenir qu'il en garda est poignant. D'un côté de la monture on avait chargé le cercueil ; de l'autre, les livres d'Averroës. "Un paquet de livres équilibrant un cadavre !" Pour comprendre le sens de la vie spéculative et scientifique de l'Orient islamique traditionnel, il faut avoir présente à l'esprit cette image, à la façon d'un symbole inverse de sa quête et de son option : "une science divine" qui triomphe de la mort.”
Henry Corbin
