"Thus the Vespa came to be linked in my eyes with transgression, sin, and even temptation - not the temptation to possess the object, but the subtle seduction of faraway places where the Vespa was the only means of transport. And it entered into my imagination not as an object of desire, but as a symbol of an unfulfilled desire."

"Wright was over 90 when he visited Mesopotamia for the first time in 1957, and the experience had a profound effect on him. When he saw the river Tigris he knew this was a place where he could build. His plan was to create an entirely new city on the great plain between the Tigris and the Euphrates. Iraq as a whole and the city of Baghdad itself deserved nothing less."
