Endings are like, I always say, like a women's pregnancy. When she has a child, she is happy to have the child, but there is a thing called postpartum depression, that is that she is no longer carrying the baby.

I truly believe that the great heroes that create the history of architecture are people who take risks and write to tell about it.

Clearly the anti-Semitism in Germany in the 1930s went overboard and it was clearly a terrible moment in history.

The architecture we remember is that which never consoles or comforts us.

If you want to show a picture, just show it - don't spend too much time arranging it.

Architecture is definitely a political act.

I would never live in anything I design. Life and art are different. My life is very precious to me - my art is precious to me. I love designing things for other people, but I don't like designing things for myself.
