The House Has To Please Everyone, Contrary To The Work Of Art Which Does Not. The Work Is A Private Matter For The Artist. The House Is Not.

Changes In The Traditional Way Of Building Are Only Permitted If They Are An Improvement. Otherwise Stay With What Is Traditional, For Truth, Even If It Be Hundreds Of Years Old Has A Stronger Inner Bond With Us Than The Lie That Walks By Our Side.

Tattooed Men Who Are Not Behind Bars Are Either Latent Criminals Or Degenerate Aristocrats. If Someone Who Is Tattooed Dies In Freedom, Then He Does So A Few Years Before He Would Have Committed Murder.
