It should begin much earlier with arts education in the American school system, which is sadly deficient.

Time is just a blur for me. I don't know what - I don't even know where I am sometimes.

I never said I was opposed to the LEED program or to green building - I'm not.

Artists dismiss me as an architect, so I'm not in their box, and architects dismiss me as an artist, so I'm not in their box.

Many people put a green button on their collar and feel good, just like a lot of people put an American flag on their lapels and feel patriotic. It's not enough.I'm not dismissing it.

Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness.

The safety requirements, which are necessary, spread everything out and push people farther and farther away from the stage and from each other.
