Architecture does not change anything. It's always on the side of the wealthy. The important thing is to believe that it can make life better.

Right angles don't attract me. Nor straight, hard and inflexible lines created by man.

A church is something very beautiful. It is nice when people feel happy in it. But I am not a religious man. Look at us, and then at the infinity of space. We are rather small insignificant creatures, wouldn’t you say?

I enter my studio at 9 a.m. I have lunch here, I return right away to my work and I go out to dinner at 8 p.m. My daily tasks vary very much.

Architecture will always express the technical and social progress of the country in which it is carried out. If we wish to give it the human content that it lacks, we must participate in the political struggle.

Today, architecture is invention. It isn't enough to just be rational - It must also be beautiful.

It is not with architecture that one can disseminate any political ideology.
