Architecture
"The present is the ever moving shadow that divides yesterday from tomorrow. In that lies hope."

"The architect must be a prophet... a prophet in the true sense of the term... if he can't see at least ten years ahead don't call him an architect."
Sense
""Think simple" as my old master used to say - meaning reduce the whole of its parts into the simplest terms, getting back to first principles."
First

Beauty
"I believe in God, only I spell it Nature."
Nature
"Buildings, too, are children of Earth and Sun."

"No stream rises higher than its source. What ever man might build could never express or reflect more than he was. He could record neither more nor less than he had learned of life when the buildings were built."
Life
"Form follows function - that has been misunderstood. Form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union."
Spiritual
"I feel coming on a strange disease - humility."
