You Know, It Is Life That Is

You Employ Stone, Wood And Concrete, And With These Materials You Build Houses And Palaces. That Is Construction. Ingenuity Is At Work. But Suddenly You Touch My Heart, You Do Me Good, I Am Happy And I Say: This Is Beautiful. That Is Architecture. Art Enters In.

When Does A Building Actually Become A Built?

Life Never Stops. The Torment Of Men Will Be Eternal, Unless The Function Of Creating And Acting And Changing, Living Intensely Through Each Day, Be Considered An Eternal Joy.

Space And Light And Order. Those Are The Things That Men Need Just As Much As They Need Bread Or A Place To Sleep.

The Purpose Of Construction Is To Make Things Hold Together; Of Architecture To Move Us.
