The men of the press, who despised their own profession, did not know why they were enjoying it today. One of them, a young man with years of notorious success behind him and a cynical look of twice his age, said suddenly, 'I know what I'd like to be: I wish I could be a man who covers news!'

A building has integrity, just as a man and just as seldom! It must be true to its own idea, have its own form, and serve its own purpose!

When you have civilized men fighting savages, you support the civilized men, no matter who they are.

You have been called selfish for the courage of acting on your own judgement and bearing sole responsibility for your own life. You have been called arrogant for your independent mind. You have been called cruel for your unyielding integrity. You have been calle anti social for the vision that made you venture upon undiscovered roads.

The quickest way to kill the human spirit is to ask someone to do mediocre work.

You are damned, and we wish to share your damnation.
