Amerikan edebiyatinin kurucu uyelerinden, Amerikali kisa oyku ve roman yazari, Houston Post’un eski muhabiri, Houston Contemporary Arts Museum’un eski muduru Donald Barthelme’in dogum yildonumu (7 Nisan 1931)

“Sanat, zor olmayi diledigi icin zor degildir; sanat olmayi diledigi için zordur. Bir yazar kendi calismasinda ne kadar sade, durust, anlasilir olmayi isterse istesin, bu meziyetler artik onun icin gecerli olmayacaktir. Sade, durust ve anlasilir olma konusunda cok da bir sey olmadigini kesfeder: bizim aradigimiz sey konusulamayan, simdiye dek konusulmamis olan iken, o konusulabileni konusur.” Bilmemek



“Art is not difficult because it wishes to be difficult, but because it wishes to be art. However much the writer might long to be, in his work, simple, honest, and straightforward, these virtues are no longer available to him. He discovers that in being simple, honest, and straightforward, nothing much happens: he speaks the speakable, whereas what we are looking for is the as-yet unspeakable, the as-yet unspoken.”

George Washington Universitesi'nde Islami ilimler uzmani Iranli profesor, musluman mutefekkir Seyyid Huseyin Nasr'in dogum gunu (7 Nisan 1933)

"Zamaninin en bilgili kisisi olarak Ibn Sina'yi goren bir ogrencisi neden peygamberlik iddiasinda bulunup yeni bir din kurmaya girismedigini kendisine sorar. Ibn Sina gulumser ve cevap vermez. Ertesi sabah safakta sabah ezan okunurken, soruyu soran ogrenci kalkar ve abdest almak icin bir havuza gider. Hava son derece soguktur. Ibn Sina, ogrencisine abdest almasi icin disariya cikmamasini, aksi halde usuyecegini soyler. Fakat ogrencisi onun ogudune kulak asmaz. Disari cikar abdestini alir ve namazini kilar. Namaz bittiginde Ibn Sina kendisini cagirir ve soyle der; 'Iste ben bunun icin peygamberlik iddiasinda bulunmuyorum. Ben burada sana hocan ve ustadin, ayni zamanda gunun en buyuk tip otoritesi olarak soguk suyla yikanmamani soyluyorum ve ben hayattayim da. Ama sen benim ogudume kulak asmiyor ve dort yuz yil once Arabistan'da yasamis , okuma -yazma bilmez ve kendisiyle hic karsilasmadigin bir adamin yolunu izliyorsun. Iste; bir peygamberle bir bilge ve filozof arasindaki fark budur.' '' Uc Musluman Bilge



"There are many stories in the Islamic world about Avicenna's religious attitude. For example,: One day one of his disciples asked him why he did not claim to be a prophet and start a new religion, seeing that he was the most learned man of his day. Avicenna smiled and said nothing. The next morning at dawn when the call for the morning prayers was made, the disciple arose to go to the pool to make his ablutions before performing his prayers. The weather was quite cold, so Avicenna told him not to go outside to make his ablutions; otherwise he would catch cold and become iJJ. But the disciple did not heed his advice; rather, he went out, made his ablutions and then performed his Prayers. When the prayers were over, Avicenna called him and said, 'That is why I do not claim to be a prophet. Here I am, your teacher and master, still alive and the greatest medical authority of the day, telling you not to wash yourself with cold water. You do not heed my advice but follow the directions of a man who lived in Arabia four centuries ago, who was illiterate, and whom you have never met. That is the difference between a prophet and a savant and philosopher.' "

Amerikali suc, gerilim ve romantik roman yazari Iris Johansen'in dogum gunu (7 Nisan 1938)

" 'Beni arama. Hazir oldugumda donecegim.'

Bunlar, Pandora Madchen’in alti yil once kacarken ardinda biraktigi satirlardi.

Hayat onune bambaska firsatlar cikarıp onu farkli yollara suruklese de o, yillar sonra cole, Sedikhan’a, asik oldugu adama donmeye artik hazirdir. Seyh Philip El Kabbar, gucu tum dunyaya uzanan bir isadami olmasina ragmen yillar boyu Pandora’dan bir haber alamamistir. Pandora donmustur cunku artik oyunun kurallari degismeli, ask yepyeni bir boyut kazanmalidir. Kazanmanin kaybetmek, kaybetmeninse sevmek oldugu bu oyunun sonunda ask kazanmalidir." Col Cicegi



" 'Don’t look for me. I’ll come back when I’m ready.'

Pandora Madchen wrote those words when she ran off six years ago.

Now Pandora was ready to return to the desert state of Sedikhan and the man she’d loved too soon and too much. Sheik Philip El Kabbar was a businessman whose power and influence extended throughout the world—but for six long years he’d been unable to find the woman he still considered it his duty to protect. She’d come back on her own terms and to take the kind of erotic gamble that Philip always won. Only this time he wasn’t sure that in winning they wouldn’t both lose what matters most. Or that in loving her, he wouldn’t be hurting them both."

"Herhangi bir sanatin onemli bir unsuru risktir. Eger risk almazsaniz, daha once hic gorulmemis, gercekten guzel bir seyi nasil yapacaksiniz? Risksiz sinemanin her zaman sevismeden bebek sahibi olmayi bekledigini soylemek isterim. / An essential element of any art is risk. If you don’t take a risk then how are you going to make something really beautiful, that hasn’t been seen before? I always like to say that cinema without risk is like having no sex and expecting to have a baby. / L'elemento essenziale di ogni forma d'arte è il rischio. Se non ti prendi dei rischi come è possibile che tu possa realizzare qualcosa di bello, che non si è mai visto prima? Dico sempre che fare cinema senza prendersi dei rischi è come sperare di avere un bambino senza fare sesso."
