Hisham Matar Zitate

Grenfell, the building set on fire with the help of its own face, is a scene of a complex injustice: one that is moral, economic, political, and aesthetic. Not only was the cladding unsafe, it was ugly; not only was it ugly, it was untrue both to the architecture of the building it covered and untrue to its responsibility to human safety.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Grenfell, das mit seinem eigenen Gesicht in Brand geratene Gebäude, ist Schauplatz einer komplexen Ungerechtigkeit, die moralisch, wirtschaftlich, politisch und ästhetisch ist. Die Verkleidung war nicht nur unsicher, sie war auch hässlich; Es war nicht nur hässlich, es war sowohl für die Architektur des Gebäudes als auch für die menschliche Sicherheit nicht wahr.

I believe there have to be reasons for every building, and that the ideas should not be self-referential.

Most people who came here came for economic reasons or sometimes for religious or political reasons. I didn't have any of this. I came here, I liked it, I stayed. So I'm a pure American - even more than people who are born here - because I did it by choice as an adult.

It's a moral absolute: If you are going to make a human being, you have a fundamental responsibility to that person - to honestly disclose exactly who they are and where they come from.

If someone comes to me, any community in the Northern Territory, with a viable economic future, and says, 'We want to be part of a bold new approach,' I'll put them down as a major project, and I'll do everything I can to help them out.

Today, more than ever before, life must be characterized by a sense of Universal responsibility, not only nation to nation and human to human, but also human to other forms of life.

I really love a challenge, but in 'Downton' it was really hard going because there's no CGI - what you see is what you get. These were real explosions right in front of our faces, and you just had to make sure that you cleared out of the way.

Thomas Howes

First, I think more Americans need to declare their independence from partisan politics on both sides. The more that Americans declare their independence, the more the parties will have to compete for their votes using reason rather than the hateful appeals.
