Frank Lloyd Wright

Noble life demands a noble architecture for noble uses of noble men. Lack of culture means what it has always meant: ignoble civilization and therefore imminent downfall.

Freedom is from within.

Television: chewing gum for the eyes.

The truth is more important than the facts.

I believe in God, only I spell it Nature.

An idea is salvation by imagination.

A doctor can bury his mistakes but an architect can only advise his client to plant vines.

Turn the world over on its side and everything loose will land in Los Angeles.

A doctor can bury his mistakes but an architect can only advise his client to plant vines.
Frank Lloyd Wright - quoted in his obituary, April 9, 1959
Give me the luxuries of life and I will willingly do without the necessities.
Frank Lloyd Wright - New York Times, October 4, 1953
The physician can bury his mistakes, but the architect can only advise his client to plant vines - so they should go as far as possible from home to build their first buildings.

The longer I live the more beautiful life becomes.

Tip the world over on its side and everything loose will land in Los Angeles.

The thing always happens that you really believe in; and the belief in a thing makes it happen.

An idea is salvation by imagination.

TV is chewing gum for the eyes.
