I prefer honest arrogance to hypocritical modesty.
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
Respect the masterpiece. It is true reverence to man. There is no quality so great, none so much needed now.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Human beings can be beautiful. If they are not beautiful it is entirely their own fault. It is what they do to themselves that makes them ugly. The longer I live the more beautiful life becomes. If you foolishly ignore beauty, you will soon find yourself without it.
Frank Lloyd Wright

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

Frank Lloyd Wright
The baby boomers are out there, they've had a lot of good years of earnings, they've inherited wealth. They are buying trophy homes and will be for years. We are one of those places people dream of. They come here to buy a piece of that dream.
Frank Lloyd Wright
The measure of a man's culture is the measure of his appreciation. We are ourselves what we appreciate and no more.
Frank Lloyd Wright
They turned the country up on its side, and everything loose fell into California.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Dining is and always was a great artistic opportunity.
Frank Lloyd Wright
I do not believe in adding enrichment merely for the sake of enrichment. Unless it adds clearness to the enunciation of the theme, it is undesirable, for it is very little understood.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Nature is the only body of God that we shall ever see.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Humanity to me is not a mob. A mob is a degeneration of humanity. A mob is humanity going the wrong way.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Democracy is the opposite of totalitarianism, communism, fascism, or mobocracy.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Imitation is always insult--not flattery.
Frank Lloyd Wright
