More quotes by Frank Lloyd Wright
Science can give us only the tools in the box, these mechanical miracles that it has already given us. But of what use to us are miraculous tools until we have mastered the humane, cultural use of them? We do not want to live in a world where the machine has mastered the man we want to live in a world where man has mastered the machine.
Frank Lloyd Wright
We should have a system of economics that is structure that is organic tools. We do not have it. We are all hanging by our eyebrows from skyhooks economically, just as we are architecturally.
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
A building is not just a place to be but a way to be.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Less is more only when more is too much.
Frank Lloyd Wright

Frank Lloyd Wright
All I learned from Eliel Saarinen was how to make out an expense account
Frank Lloyd Wright

They come away conditioned, not enlightened, and they know nothing of architecture, although they have a department somewhere around -- probably in the basement.
Frank Lloyd Wright

Frank Lloyd Wright
We do not learn so much by our successes as we learn by failures - our own and others! Especially if we see the failures properly corrected.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Television is bubble-gum for the mind.
Frank Lloyd Wright
If you're going to have centralization, why not have it!
Frank Lloyd Wright
A man is a fool if he drinks before he reaches the age of 50, and a fool if he doesn't afterward.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Prison house for the soul
Frank Lloyd Wright
An idea is salvation by imagination.
Frank Lloyd Wright
The mother art is architecture. Without an architecture of our own we have no soul of our own civilization.
Frank Lloyd Wright
To look at the cross-section of any plan of a big city is to look at something like the section of a fibrous tumor.
Frank Lloyd Wright
The architect must be a prophet... a prophet in the true sense of the term... if he can't see at least ten years ahead don't call him an architect.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Youth is a circumstance you can't do anything about. The trick is to grow up without getting old.
Frank Lloyd Wright
I go to nature every day for inspiration in the day's work.
Frank Lloyd Wright
