The work of art shows people new directions and thinks of the future. The house thinks of the present.
No architect troubled to design houses that suited people who were to live in them because that would have meant building a whole range of different houses. It was far cheaper and above all timesaving to make them identical.
If you give people nothingness they can ponder what can be achieved from that nothingness.
What people want above all is order.
I love building spaces: architecture furniture all of it probably more than fashion. The development procedure is more tactile. It's about space and form and it's something you can share with other people.
I try to give people a different way of looking at their surroundings. That's art to me.
I believe that the way people live can be directed a little by architecture.
My passion and great enjoyment for architecture and the reason the older I get the more I enjoy it is because I believe we - architects - can effect the quality of life of the people.
The 150th anniversary of Penn State will highlight what is important and good about this distinguished institution and the fine people and research that it produces.
1 month ago the American people stopped to remember the third anniversary of the beginning of the Iraq war. We thought first and foremost of the selflessness patriotism and heroism by our troops our National Guard and Reserves.
This anniversary serves to help remind the American people that in the wake of one of the greatest political scandals and misuse of power in our history as a nation scandal produced important reforms that served this nation well for two decades.
Perhaps a hundred people assembled one evening May 15 1876 at the time when the country was celebrating the hundredth anniversary of its political independence.
So while an incredible amount of progress has been made on this fifth anniversary I wanted to come here and tell the people of this city directly: My administration is going to stand with you - and fight alongside you - until the job is done. Until New Orleans is all the way back all the way.
Married people from my generation are like an endangered species!
Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years.
The concept of two people living together for 25 years without a serious dispute suggests a lack of spirit only to be admired in sheep.
Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight dinner soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays I go Fridays.
