All fine architectural values are human values, else not valuable.

Love is the virtue of the Heart, Sincerity is the virtue of the Mind, Decision is the virtue of the Will, Courage is the virtue of the Spirit.

The two most important tools an architect has are the eraser in the drawing room and the sledge hammer on the construction site.

A building should appear to grow easily from its site and be shaped to harmonize with its surroundings if Nature is manifest there.

We should learn from the snail: it has devised a home that is both exquisite and functional.

Love of an idea is the love of God.

The present is the ever moving shadow that divides yesterday from tomorrow. In that lies hope.
