It Is Hopeless To Try To Convert

But Look What We Have Built Low-income Projects That Become Worse Centers Of Delinquency, Vandalism And General Social Hopelessness Than The Slums They Were Supposed To Replace. Cultural Centers That Are Unable To Support A Good Bookstore. Civic Centers That Are Avoided By Everyone But Bums. Promenades That Go From No Place To Nowhere And Have No Promenaders. Expressways That Eviscerate Great Cities. This Is Not The Rebuilding Of Cities. This Is The Sacking Of Cities.

While You Are Looking, You Might As Well Also Listen, Linger And Think About What You See.

I Have Learned Yet Again (this Has Been Going On All My Life) What Folly It Is To Take Any Thing For Granted Without Examining It Skeptically.

We Expect Too Much Of New #‎ Buildings , And Too Little Of Ourselves.

By The End Of The Book, It Is Quite Different Than The Way You Thought It Would Be When You Started The Book - Both In Form And What It Contains And What You Think. Well, You Tipped In A Lot And You Digested A Lot - It Wasn't Pre-digested In Your View. And It Changed What You Thought And How You See Things.
