Zitat des Tages über Polemik / Polemic:
Any work of architecture that has with it some discussion, some polemic, I think is good. It shows that people are interested, people are involved.
I'm not that comfortable doing polemic or being strident.
Even a polemic has some justification if one considers that my own first poetic experiments began during a dictatorship and mark the origin of the Hermetic movement.
Well, I am not 100 percent sure of the definition of polemic, but it wasn't meant to convince anybody of anything.
We've heard a lot in recent polemic about how to win the fight for the corner office. But pushing up against a glass ceiling is practically a luxury when you consider the millions of women who can feel the floor dropping beneath their feet.
I'm not a polemicist; I had no business writing a polemic.
But I still read Shaw on a regular basis. What I love is the nakedness of the polemic and the irresistible good humour. For me, 'Major Barbara' is the greatest of all the plays in that it starts from the rational and proceeds to the ecstatic in a spectacular way, and leaves you very confused if you cling to Euclidean logic.
