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

Frank Lloyd Wright
Toleration and liberty are the foundations of a great republic.
Frank Lloyd Wright

Frank Lloyd Wright

Frank Lloyd Wright
Get the habit of analysis - analysis will in time enable synthesis to become your habit of mind.
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
All the more I study Nature do I revere God, because Nature is all the body of God we will ever know.
Frank Lloyd Wright
They turned the country up on its side, and everything loose fell into California.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Consider everything in the nature of a hanging fixture a weakness, and naked radiators an abomination.
Frank Lloyd Wright
A great architect is not made by way of a brain nearly so much as he is made by way of a cultivated, enriched heart.
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
A building is not just a place to be but a way to be.
Frank Lloyd Wright
More and more, so it seems to me, light is the beautifier of the building.
Frank Lloyd Wright
