Frank Lloyd Wright
An idea is salvation by imagination.

Frank Lloyd Wright
San Francisco is the only city I can think of that can survive all the things you people are doing to it and still look beautiful.
Frank Lloyd Wright
I think Miss Monroe as architecture is extremely good architecture, and she's a very natural actress, and a very good one.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Is there anything more anti-American than McCarthyism?
Frank Lloyd Wright
We create our buildings and then they create us. Likewise, we construct our circle of friends and our communities and then they construct us.
Frank Lloyd Wright
We boast the highest standard of living when it's only the biggest.
Frank Lloyd Wright
All I learned from Eliel Saarinen was how to make out an expense account
Frank Lloyd Wright
Organic architecture seeks superior sense of use and a finer sense of comfort, expressed in organic simplicity.
Frank Lloyd Wright
