“The Islamic foursquare garden signified the four quarters of the universe, with the four rivers of life intersecting at the garden’s centre.
“The Persians, and later Islam in its traditions, balance the lack of generosity by nature creating gardens using the reassuring colour of living green, the colour that became a sign for Islam.
“The garden enjoyed an interlocking complexity with architecture.
“Tiled and well-ordered courtyards were symmetrically pre-occupied, representing transcendental purity and perfection, in direct contrast to mankind’s and natures predictable imperfection.”

“…Use natural light. Take what you get. Make the variability in your inputs part of what you create.”
“…take the path of natural light. Embrace the idea that the conditions will never be ideal, which of course makes them always ideal. Because the thing about natural light is that whatever it is, is.”
“You can make this choice about the way you make ketchup, your hiking & camping methods or the way you do photography. Less equipment, less repeatability, more engagement.”

“…Instagram feels less like Blogspot, and more like Livejournal. You don’t read it for debate or argument, but to know what your friends are doing and feeling. Most Instagram blogging requires a certain amount of innate sympathy to find compelling. But opening the app can be a nice return to an older internet, where people felt more open and less paranoid about sharing the endearing ordinariness of their everyday lives online.”

“The initiator
“For each person who cares enough to make something, who is bold enough to ship it, who is generous enough to say, “here, I made this,”…
“There are ten people who say, “I could have done it better.”
“A hundred people who say, “Who are you to do this?”
“A thousand people who say, “I was just about to do that,”
“and ten thousand people who don’t care at all.
“And all of that is okay, because the person we need, the one we cherish, the one we would miss, is the first person, the initiator, the one who cares.
“Thanks for shipping your work.” — Seth Godin

“If Othello really is that decent, honest, and credulous, if he can really have friends and be loved by a beautiful woman, the white characters in the play can’t accept it,” Spiro said. “Iago has to destroy him.”

“There are no best practices – only very good practices given a certain context” – Udi Dahan
“…the idea that a best practice exists presupposes that it is the best thing you can do in any situation. In reality, what it often means is that the practice has worked in the person’s previous experience.”
“…If you’re under the impression that some practice is best always, you may not spend the time to think about whether or not it’s actually helping you in your current situation.”
