More quotes by Frank Gehry
Take what comes your way. Do the best with it. Be responsible as you can and something good will happen.
Frank Gehry

Frank Gehry
Democracy is a problem and we don't want to get rid of it.
Frank Gehry

Frank Gehry
Computers allow architects to remain parental instead of being marginalized by the contractors and managers.
Frank Gehry
If I knew where I was going, I wouldn't do it. When I can predict or plan it, I don't do it.
Frank Gehry
I used to sketch - that's the way I thought out loud. Then they made a book of my sketches, and I got self-conscious, so now I don't do it much.
Frank Gehry
Time is just a blur for me. I don't know what - I don't even know where I am sometimes.
Frank Gehry
Architecture and any art can transform a person, even save someone. It can for children - for anyone. It still does for me.
Frank Gehry
Many people put a green button on their collar and feel good, just like a lot of people put an American flag on their lapels and feel patriotic. It's not enough.
Frank Gehry
Many people put a green button on their collar and feel good, just like a lot of people put an American flag on their lapels and feel patriotic. It's not enough.I'm not dismissing it.
Frank Gehry
We live and work in boxes. People don't even notice that.
