Every Building Must Have... Its Own Soul.

You Say To A Brick, 'what Do You Want, Brick?' And Brick Says To You, 'i Like An Arch.' And You Say To Brick, 'look, I Want One, Too, But Arches Are Expensive And I Can Use A Concrete Lintel.' And Then You Say: 'what Do You Think Of That, Brick?' Brick Says: 'i Like An Arch.'

I Just Want To Make My Last Demand In Reverence To The Work Of What Has Been Done By Architects Of The Past. What Was, Has Always Been. What Is, Has Always Been. And What Will Be, Has Always Been. Such Is The Nature Of Beginning.

Even A Room Which Must Be Dark Needs At Least A Crack Of Light To Know How Dark It Is.

If People Want To See Beaux-arts, It's Fine With Me. I'm Interested In Good Architecture As Anybody Else.

Every Building Must Have... Its Own Soul.
