An idea is salvation by imagination.
All fine architectural values are human values, else not valuable.
Regard it as just as desirable to build a chicken house as to build a cathedral.
A doctor can bury his mistakes but an architect can only advise his clients to plant vines.
An architect's most useful tools are an eraser at the drafting board, and a wrecking bar at the site.
Organic architecture seeks superior sense of use and a finer sense of comfort, expressed in organic simplicity.
Form follows function - that has been misunderstood. Form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union.
Every great architect is - necessarily - a great poet. He must be a great original interpreter of his time, his day, his age.
The architect must be a prophet... a prophet in the true sense of the term... if he can't see at least ten years ahead don't call him an architect.
Craps?
