Architecture is for the young. If our teenagers don't get architecture - if they are not inspired, (then) we won't have the architecture that we must have if this country is going to be beautiful.
Frank Lloyd Wright
A building is not just a place to be but a way to be.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Well, now that he's finished one building, he'll go write four books about it.
