I guess I want to make money just like other people, perhaps more than most people.

Faith? Haven't any. I'm not a nihilist or a relativist. I don't believe in anything but change. I'm a Heraclitean - you can't step in the same river twice.

I wouldn't build a building if it wasn't of interest to me as a potential work of art. Why should I?

Doing a house is so much harder than doing a skyscraper.

Architects are pretty much high-class whores. We can turn down projects the way they can turn down some clients, but we've both got to say yes to someone if we want to stay in business.

Architecture is basically the design of interiors, the art of organizing interior space.

Don't build a glass house if you're worried about saving money on heating.
