Less is more.

We must be as familiar with the functions of our building as with our materials. We must learn what a building can be, what it should be, and also what it must not be.

Each material is only what we make it.

The long path from material through function to creative work has only one goal: to create order out of the desperate confusion of our time.

Means must be subsidiary to ends and to our desire for dignity and value.

If teaching has any purpose, it is to implant true insight and responsibility. Education must lead us from irresponsible opinion to true responsible judgement. It must lead us from chance and arbitrariness to rational clarity and intellectual order.

Architecture starts when you carefully put two bricks together. There it begins.
