Jerusalém tem uma beleza que nos obriga a sucumbir. Entrando por qualquer uma das suas oito portas, atravessando o seu desenho labiríntico, como se há muito fizéssemos parte dele, podemos fechar os olhos e deixar que os sentidos nos guiem. Não há outro lugar assim no mundo.
José Tolentino de Mendonça
The view of Jerusalem is the history of the world; it is more, it is the history of earth and of heaven.
B. Disraeli
Jerusalem is the house of the one God, the capital of two peoples, the temple of three religions and she is the only city to exist twice—in heaven and on earth: the peerless grace of the terrestrial is as nothing to the glories of the celestial.
Simon Sebag Montefiore
The Jerusalem I was raised to love was the terrestrial gateway to the divine world where Jewish, Christian and Muslim prophets, men of vision and a sense of humanity, met—if only in the imagination.
