Quotations
Poet
Every great architect is - necessarily - a great poet. He must be a great original interpreter of his time, his day, his age.

And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.
