It Should Begin Much Earlier

I Think People Care. If Not, Why Do So Many People Spend Money Going On Vacations To See Architecture? They Go To The Parthenon, To Chartres, To The Sydney Opera House. They Go To Bilbao... Something Compels Them, And Yet We Live Surrounded By Everything But Great Architecture.

The Idealism [in Architecture] Is In The Formal Arrangement, The Relationship To The City, The Use Of Materials That Are Available To Me. That's Where I Say Our Powers Are Limited.

That's What You Have To Find In Architecture. You Have To Find Your Signature. When You Find It, You're The Only Expert On It. People Can Say They Like It Or Don't Like It. They Can Argue About It, But It's Yours.

I Don't Know Whose Box I'm In, And I Don't Really Care.

Take What Comes Your Way. Do The Best With It. Be Responsible As You Can And Something Good Will Happen.
