More quotes by 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
Less is more only when more is too much.
Frank Lloyd Wright
The sense of space within the reality of any building is a new concept wherever architecture is concerned. But it is essential ancient principle just the same and is not only necessary now but implied by the ideal of democracy itself.
Frank Lloyd Wright

Frank Lloyd Wright
The best thing to do is go as far out as you can get... what you regard as 'too far' - and when others follow, as they will, move on
Frank Lloyd Wright
Organic architecture seeks superior sense of use and a finer sense of comfort, expressed in organic simplicity.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Respect the masterpiece. It is true reverence to man. There is no quality so great, none so much needed now.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Television is bubble-gum for the mind.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Architectural features of true democratic ground-freedom would rise naturally from topography, which means that buildings would all take on the nature and character of the ground on which in endless variety they would stand and be component part.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Each had his past shut in him like the leaves of a book known to him by heart and his friends could only read the title. - Virginia Woolf, from Jacob's Room Television is chewing gum for the eyes.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Democracy is the opposite of totalitarianism, communism, fascism, or mobocracy.
Frank Lloyd Wright
I'm against war. Always have been, always will be. And everything connected with it, is anathema to me. I have never considered it necessary.
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
The thing always happens that you really believe in and the belief in a thing makes it happen.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Space. The continual becoming: invisible fountain from which all rhythms flow and to which they must pass. Beyond time or infinity
Frank Lloyd Wright
It's easier to make changes with a pencil than a wrecking bar.
Frank Lloyd Wright
