## Quotes

* "Sand Roses" is a historical novel set in 1930s colonial Algeria. It follows the story of two sisters, Salima and Fahima, who embark on a career as courtesans in the City of Joy, a desert town known for its promises of glamour and success for aspiring dancers. However, the sisters must endure unimaginable horrors as they navigate life within a conservative community and a ruthless army. After killing a French soldier in self-defense, their efforts to conceal the body spiral into a cycle of escalating violence, drawing them into a larger struggle against the occupation. "Sand Roses" is a powerful tale of sisterhood and resistance in the face of oppression.
** Hamza Koudri responds to the question, "Can you tell us a bit about your novel Sand Roses"?
* The idea for "Sand Roses" came to me after listening to a podcast by historian Aurélie Perrier on prostitution in colonial and Ottoman Algeria. I was fascinated by the Ouled Nail, a tribe of semi-nomads who, until the 1980s, raised their daughters to become courtesans. They were taught the arts of singing, dancing, and seduction, and were welcomed back into their community after their years in the profession. As I learned more about their way of life, their code, and how they used jewelry for both status and self-defense, I was both captivated and outraged by this part of my country’s history, something I had never heard of at 26. One detail that stayed with me was how Perrier compared the Ouled Nail culture to Japan's geishas, and how the French occupation sought to reshape these local traditions to fit European models of prostitution. That comparison sparked the initial idea for the story, and after further research and reflection, the full plot eventually came together.
** Hamza Koudri respond la to question, "What inspired it"?
* The primary challenge African writers face is the lack of support. In the English-speaking world, authors have access to numerous opportunities to connect with peers and professionals, develop their craft, and manage their writing careers.
** Hamza Koudri respond la to question, "What problems do you believe writers from Africa face"?
* I began teaching at 18 and was fortunate to receive continuous training throughout the four years I spent in the role. The first lesson I learned was, "Do no harm," a principle I still uphold today and encourage my colleagues and trainees to follow as well. In a world where knowledge is easily accessible but people struggle to distinguish truth from misinformation, I believe the role of an educator is no longer to be the source of all knowledge, but to guide and facilitate the learning process.
** A Dialogue with Hamza Koudri
* I enjoy reflecting deeply on the philosophy of education.
** Hamza Koudri's response to the question, "How would you summarize your philosophy as an educator"?

# Evasion (ethics)

In ethics, evasion is an act that deceives by stating a true statement that is irrelevant or leads to a false conclusion.

## Quotes

* What seems to me to be driving our whole civilization toward the abyss at present is a one-sided conception of liberty, a conception that is purely centrifugal, that would get rid of all outer control and then evade or deny openly the need of achieving inner control.
** Irving Babbitt, "English and the Discipline of Ideas " (1920), Irving Babbitt: Representative Writings (1981), p. 66.
* The more a man's life is shaped by the collective norms, the greater is his individual immorality.
** Carl G. Jung, Psychological Types - The Collected Works of C.G. Jung, Vol.6 (1971), p. 449
* The most ruinous evasion of all is to be hidden in the crowd in an attempt to escape God's supervision.
** Søren Kierkegaard, Purity of Heart.
* The most pernicious of all evasions is—hidden in the crowd, to want, as it were, to avoid God’s inspection of oneself as a single individual, as Adam once did when his bad conscience fooled him into thinking that he could hide among the trees.

# Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn

The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn (or, more commonly, The Golden Dawn) was an organization devoted to the study and practice of the occult, metaphysics, and paranormal activities during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Known as a magical order, the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn was active in Great Britain and focused its practices on theurgy and spiritual development. Many present-day concepts of ritual and magic that are at the centre of contemporary traditions, such as Wicca and Thelema, were inspired by the Golden Dawn, which became one of the largest single influences on 20th-century Western occultism.

## Quotes

* The original Golden Dawn was not always as serious as it should have been. Mathers was a clown, and Yeats was just a romantic trying to deceive himself. Most of them were interested in personal power, and it ended up by destroying them. The aim of our group is the scientific exploration of the hidden powers of the human mind.

# Yohji Yamamoto

Yohji Yamamoto (山本 耀司, Yamamoto Yōji, born 1943) is a Japanese fashion designer.

## Quotes

* Generally speaking, I am not interested in the future and don't believe in it. First, I guess it is true that I don't trust the future, but, more to the point, I don't even trust the "myself" of tomorrow, nor, for that matter, of the day after. Basically, all I know, and all I am capable of understanding, is the "me" that is here, now, the "me" that has dragged his past with him to this point.
** Wim Wenders. Notebook on Cities and Clothes (1989). (The above transcription is from Kiyokazu Washida. The Past, the Feminine, the Vain in Talking to Myself (2002), Ch. 1: Fashion, or the Gaze at the Past).
* I think perfection is ugly. Somewhere in the things humans make, I want to see scars, failure, disorder, distortion. If I can feel those things in works by others, then I like them.
** Kiyokazu Washida. The Past, the Feminine, the Vain in Talking to Myself (2002), Ch. 2: The Feminine, or the Gap Which Cannot be Filled.
* In order to create an image almost similar to that of a pencil case standing up and walking, I try to eliminate all excess by cutting. I have the feeling that this process (of "cutting off") is linked in some way to "elegance". Elegance and so-called "eliminating excess", or the beauty that remains after excess has beeen eliminated...

* Dirty, stained, withered, broken things seem beautiful to me.

* I want to achieve anti-fashion through fashion. That's why I'm always heading in my own direction, in parallel to fashion.
** Yohji Yamamoto. May I Help You? in Talking to Myself (2002), Ch. 9: Creation.
* My whole life is made up of: "I'm sorry". I feel like I have to apologize to people, to things, to life itself. It's like, "I'm sorry to be here". I don't want to disturb anyone. But in my work, in the clothes I create, I'm actually telling people that I'm here. So, I guess I'm disturbing them, after all.
** Yohji Yamamoto. May I Help You? in Talking to Myself (2002), Ch. 12: The Expressions "Excuse-me" and "I'm sorry".
* To be modern is to tear the soul out of every thing.
** My Dear Bomb (2011)
* It is also important to carefully read the cards that life deals you, and to play the right hand at the right moment for maximum effect. Having tasted a chilled champagne in a hotel suite is fine, but one should also have enjoyed a tasty glass of beer bought with one's last few coins while down and out. The breadth of experience will allow one to look into that cracked mirror, snicker, and hten tie a neckerchief into a bowtie and push back one's thinning hair. Now that would be a man with a genuine sense of style.

## Quotes

* One thing leads to another, and soon you are searching for answers to basic questions. Another time during lectures on Classical Logic, we were introduced to an “experimentum crucis”. It was illustrated by the deciding experiment of Fizeau on the speed of light in water as compared to its speed in air. Since wave theory predicts that speed in water is less, and corpuscular theory (with point particles) predicts it would be faster, this is supposed to have selected the wave theory is correct. But then how would one accommodate the photoelectric effect? Then it turns out that if the “corpuscle” of light had a finite size, corpuscular theory also predicts lower speed of light in water. But then one can ask how come photoelectric emission being prompt even in feeble light, how could the energy of a photon spread over π(λ/2)2 act as a whole and liberate a single photoelectron! This leads us to question the square of the amplitude being interpreted as the probability of the particle being formed in the immediate vicinity. How do probabilities enter quantum mechanics? Thus the questions (and the quest) go on.

# Carl David Anderson

Carl David Anderson (September 3, 1905 – January 11, 1991) was an American physicist. He is best known for his discovery of the positron in 1932, an achievement for which he received the 1936 Nobel Prize in Physics, and of the muon in 1936.

## Quotes

* The atom can't be seen, yet its existence can be proved. And it is simple to prove that it can't ever be seen. It has to be studied by indirect evidence — and the technical difficulty has been compared to asking a man who has never seen a piano to describe a piano from the sound it would make falling downstairs in the dark.
** As quoted in Carl Anderson. Some notes about his life and work at Caltech. The first of a series of biographical sketches of Caltech faculty members. Engineering and Science, Vol. 15:1 (October 1951)
* The ideal student would be one who was not working for grades but was working because he was interested in the work and not trying to compete with fellow students.
** Interview with Carl Anderson (1979). Oral History Project, California Institute of Technology Archives, Pasadena, California.

## Quotes about Anderson

* ... Carl Anderson told me what life was like after he got his Ph.D. under Millikan in 1930. Dirac had proposed the existence of a partner to the electron, its antiparticle, and Carl wanted to find it by converting γ-rays found in the debris of cosmic rays into what we now call electron-positron pairs. He needs to get a big magnet, and build a cloud chamber with a lead plate and camera. When he asks Millikan for money, Millikan reaches into his pocket and gives him some. Carl goes to a couple of junk shops for supplies and gets to work. When the magnet, cloud chamber, and camera are finished, Carl puts them, together with food and a sleeping bag, into his old Model T Ford, and drives up the unpaved Mount Wilson Observatory road into the San Gabriel Mountains behind Pasadena. Carl is on his way to discovering the positron.
