Frank Lloyd Wright
Youth is a quality, not a matter of circumstances.
Frank Lloyd Wright

Frank Lloyd Wright
I never design a building before I've seen the site and met the people who will be using it.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Architecture is the triumph of human imagination over materials, methods, and men, to put man into possession of his own earth
Frank Lloyd Wright
Nature is the only body of God that we shall ever see.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Eventually, I think Chicago will be the most beautiful great city left in the world.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Money shows [man] new ways to cheat life. Power becomes exterior instead of interior. In these circumstances architecture becomes too difficult, building too easy.
Frank Lloyd Wright
