I think about architecture all the time. That's the problem. But I've always been like that. I dream it sometimes.
Zaha Hadid
Image
Know what it is that you are trying to find out.
Zaha Hadid
Image
Half of architecture students are women, and you see respected, established female architects all the time.

Image
I am eccentric, I admit it, but I am not a nutcase.
Zaha Hadid
Image
I don't think that architecture is only about shelter, is only about a very simple enclosure. It should be able to excite you, to calm you, to make you think.
Zaha Hadid
Image
I've always been interested in combining architecture with a social agenda, and I really think you can invest and be inventive with hospitals and housing.

Image
One has to strive for a very open liberal society.

I am quite sensitive to politics, because you know, as an Arab, an Iraqi, all your life, you are very conscious of it.
Zaha Hadid
Image
People don't talk to you properly. It's the way they talk to you they dismiss you. I think it's a combination of me being a woman and a foreigner.
Zaha Hadid
Image
I miss aspects of being in the Arab world - the language - and there is a tranquility in these cities with great rivers. Whether it's Cairo or Baghdad, you sit there and you think, 'This river has flown here for thousands of years.' There are magical moments in these places.
Zaha Hadid
Image
I am equally proud of all of my architectural projects. It's always rewarding to see an ambitious design become reality.
Zaha Hadid
Image
It would be very interesting to design objects for everyday life, something where the ideas that are expressed can be launched into society.
Zaha Hadid
Image
I am sure that as a woman I can do a very good skyscraper.
Zaha Hadid
Image
The goal posts might shift, but you should have a goal.
Zaha Hadid
Image
Of course I believe imaginative architecture can make a difference to people's lives, but I wish it was possible to divert some of the effort we put into ambitious museums and galleries into the basic architectural building blocks of society.
Zaha Hadid
Image
What's similar between Britain and America is the lack of good-quality civic buildings.
Zaha Hadid
Image
I don't particularly like showing furniture on pedestals, but for whatever reasons you always have to in museums.
Zaha Hadid
Image
There are so many great galleries and museums in London, but they can be very crowded during the day.
