It Is Better To Be Good Than

Means Must Be Subsidiary To Ends And To Our Desire For Dignity And Value.

Architecture Is The Will Of An Epoch Translated Into Space.

Where Can We Find Greater Structural Clarity Than In The Wooden Buildings Of The Old. Where Else Can We Find Such Unity Of Material, Construction And Form? Here The Wisdom Of Whole Generations Is Stored. What Feelings For Material And What Power Of Expression There Is In These Buildings! What Warmth And Beauty They Have! They Seem To Be Echoes Of Old Songs.

Never Talk To A Client About Architecture. Talk To Him About His Children. That Is Simply Good Politics. He Will Not Understand What You Have To Say About Architecture Most Of The Time. An Architect Of Ability Should Be Able To Tell A Client What He Wants. Most Of The Time A Client Never Knows What He Wants.

Architecture Is The Real Battleground Of The Spirit.
