You can never learn anything that is not a part of yourself.

Architecture appears for the first time when the sunlight hits a wall. The sunlight did not know what it was before it hit a wall.

I sense Light as the giver of all presences, and material as spent Light. What is made by Light casts a shadow, and the shadow belongs to Light.

We are born of light. The seasons are felt through light. We only know the world as it is evoked by light.

The sun never knew how great it was until it hit the side of a building.

A great building must begin with the unmeasurable, must go through measurable means when it is being designed and in the end must be unmeasurable.

Even a room which must be dark needs at least a crack of light to know how dark it is.

Design is not making beauty, beauty emerges from selection, affinities, integration, love.

A city is the place of availabilities. It is the place where a small boy, as he walks through it, may see something that will tell him what he wants to do his whole life.

Even a brick wants to be something

The creation of art is not the fulfillment of a need but the creation of a need. The world never needed Beethoven's Fifth Symphony until he created it. Now we could not live without it.

If your project doesn't work, look for the part that you didn't think was important.

The modern technologist is less 'sorcerer' and more 'sorcerer's apprentice'.

When men and woman die, as poets sung, his heart's the last part moves, her last, the tongue.

I just want to get the bad guys but if I can’t see them, I can’t shoot them.

God touches and moves, warns and desires all equally, and He wants one quite as much as another. The inequality lies in the way in which His touch, His warnings, and His gifts are received.

When the E.U. and the U.S. agree, other countries follow.

The deeper the feeling, the greater the pain

What are you doing for others?

I write for anybody struggling to manage their money.

I don't even like football.
