"No person who is not a great sculptor or painter can be an architect. If he is not a sculptor or painter, he can only be a builder."

"Architecture is really about well-being. I think that people want to feel good in a space … On the one hand it’s about shelter, but it’s also about pleasure."

"A great building must begin with the immeasurable, must go through measurable means when it is being designed, and in the end must be unmeasured."
