Architecture is life, or at least it is life itself taking form and therefore it is the truest record of life as it was lived in the world yesterday, as it is lived today or ever will be lived.
The physician can bury his mistakes, but the architect can only advise his client to plant vines.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT, New York Times, Oct. 4, 1953
To look at the cross-section of any plan of a big city is to look at something like the section of a fibrous tumor.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT, The Living City
Early in life I had to choose between honest arrogance and hypocritical humility. I chose the former and have seen no reason to change.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT, Chicago Tribune, Sep. 26, 2004
The mother art is architecture. Without an architecture of our own we have no soul of our own civilization.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT, Truth Against the World
Now, of course, architecture is a blind spot of our life in America today. How many millions of students go to the university to be educated? They come away conditioned, not enlightened, and they know nothing of architecture, although they have a department somewhere around -- probably in the basement.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT, Truth Against the World
The present is the ever moving shadow that divides yesterday from tomorrow. In that lies hope.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT, The Living City
