Architecture, in itself, at the end of the day, is a rational profession.

It's important to write a mystery novel where the takeaway is not a giveaway - where something could be read over and over.

The idea of morphology of languages is something that I'm really interested in.

I see architecture as a form of communication over time.

Unlike sciences, literature as art relies on societal acceptance of a certain vocabulary.

The idea of morphology of languages is something that I'm really interested in. How does German turn to Dutch, and how does Dutch turn to Anglo-Saxon and eventually English? Morphology is actually taking place through things like Twitter or GChat today, where we're changing how things are spelled, and those spellings are accepted as standard now. Morphology happens over time. It's not necessarily a bad thing.

One of the reasons why architects are often attracted to philosophers, partially, has to do with making sense of the world around us as well as the making of worlds.
