Anselm Kiefer: "Rubble is the future. Because everything that is, passes. There is a wonderful chapter in Isaiah that says: 'Grass will grow over your cities.' This sentence has always fascinated me, even as a child. This poetry the fact that you see both things at the same time. Isaiah sees the city and the different layers over it, the grass, and then another city, the grass and then another city again." --2005
