Stephen Greenblatt
“A comparably capacious embrace of beauty and pleasure - an embrace that somehow extends to death as well as life, to dissolution as well as creation - characterizes Montaigne's restless reflections on matter in motion, Cervantes's chronicle of his mad knight, Michelangelo's depiction of flayed skin, Leonardo's sketches of whirlpools, Caravaggio's loving attention to the dirty soles of Christ's feet.”
Stephen Greenblatt, The Swerve: How the World Became Modern

Soroosh Shahrivar
“your world has managed
to bring out the worst in me
no whirls and no swerves
and no dance of ecstasy
i am not buying
your deeds Mr. Mowlavi
stop with the preaching, they’re not getting through to me!”
Soroosh Shahrivar, Letter 19
