The obsession with performance left no room for the development of the intuitive or spiritual impact of space and form other than the aesthetic of the machine itself.

After 1980, you never heard reference to space again. Surface, the most convincing evidence of the descent into materialism, became the focus of design. Space disappeared.

There is an increasing awareness of the interrelatedness of things. We are becoming less prone to accept an immediate solution without questioning its larger implications.

The way of architecture is the quiet voice that underlies it and has guided it from the beginning.

God's designs may be frequent justification for our actions, but it is we, the "self-made men", who take the credit.

Illusion is needed to disguise the emptiness within.

Space has always been the spiritual dimension of architecture. It is not the physical statement of the structure so much as what it contains that moves us.
