There has been much speculation as Baruch Spinoza and Rembrandt Harmensz van Rijn knew each other, both lived in a city at the time with all possible beliefs where living together harmoniously, Amsterdam was a very special city.

Rembrandt’s “Flight into Egypt” and left: “Flight Into Egypt: A Night Piece” 1651. #themorgan #baruchspinoza #amsterdamlightfestival

Bernard Tschumi said that the paradox of architecture is that it is at the same time concept and experience. He quoted a remark often attributed to Spinoza: “The concept of a dog doesn’t bark”. But there is a dog, and the dog barks! It’s the same in architecture! #tschumi #baruchspinoza @daryavonberner #amsterdamlightfestival

Spinoza needed only his thoughts to change the world, no emails, no envelopes, he simply folded his letter put wax on it, and so was saved by his friends. #amsterdamlightfestival #amsterdamuniversity #baruchspinoza #robertkirkman
