Architecture Is Invention.

In Architecture It Isn't Enough To Just Have The Right Building That Works Well. It Can Also Be Beautiful. It Can Also Be Different. It Can Create Surprise. And Surprise Is The Main Thing In A Work Of Art. [] I Like And Respect Brasí­lia Very Much. It Is A Simple City, A Rational One. I Always Defend The Urban Design Of Brasí­lia

Architecture Was My Way Of Expressing My Ideals: To Be Simple, To Create A World Equal To Everyone, To Look At People With Optimism, That Everyone Has A Gift. I Don’t Want Anything But General Happiness. Why Is That Bad?

My Work Is Not About "form Follows Function," But "form Follows Beauty" Or, Even Better, "form Follows Feminine."

My Architecture Is Easy To Understand. And Enjoy. I Hope It Also Is Hard To Forget.

Turning 102 Is Crap, And There Is Nothing To Commemorate.
