The best introduction by far to representation of the human figure in art. The Nude is a beautifully written work of sophisticated connoisseurship that analyzes art in its own terms rather than imposing strident, politicized categories on it.

This book reveres art — Camille Anna Paglia

Most men love women. Most men are intrigued and bedeviled by them. Most men spend their lives dreaming about women.

The politicized version of Shia Islam that we see in the Islamic Republic post-1979 clearly is very conservative, but, there are other things one could say about Ayatollah Khomeini's concept of a Shia state because that in itself is a blasphemy as far as most Shia clerics are concerned.

I don't think any administration, when they come in, thinks that their job is to tell the scientists what the science looks like or to be quiet about the science.

Remember, the left corrupts everything, folks. The Democrat Party, the left corrupts every institution. They politicize it, and by virtue of that alone they corrupt it.

With movement, families get split. With the politicization of religion, spirituality gets diluted. With people intermarrying and falling in love outside of pre-existing defined groups, the tribe is disappearing.

So finding a way to make transience more acceptable, even beautiful is key. — Mohsin Hamid
