Votes are counted. Yes—but vision can neither be counted nor discounte — Frank Lloyd Wright

"Every great architect is — necessarily — a great poet. He must be a great original interpreter of his time, his day, his age."

"God is the great mysterious motivator of what we call nature and it has been said often by philosophers, that nature is the will of God. And, I prefer to say that nature is the only body of God that we shall ever see. If we wish to know the truth concerning anything, well find it in the nature of that thing."

"Early in life I had to choose between honest arrogance and hypocritical humility. I chose honest arrogance and have seen no occasion to change."

"Between the radical and the conformist lies all the difference between a lithe tendon and a length of gas-pipe."

"Success was misunderstood as essential to progress. Really success was worse than failure."

"Thus the plausible expedient has become gospel and continues to be generally foisted upon those who seek better things; the conformities proclaimed by authority, however specious, temporarily mistaken for Godhead."
