There are hundreds of Frank Lloyd Wright buildings around the United States and in other countries, too. Wright lived into his 90s, and one of his most famous buildings, the Guggenheim Museum in New York, was completed just before his death. Wright buildings look like Wright buildings - that is their paradox (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
The ultimate creative thinking technique is to think like God. If you’re an atheist, pretend how God would do it (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
Architecture is for the young. If our teenagers don’t get architecture - if they are not inspired, (then) we won’t have the architecture that we must have if this country is going to be beautiful (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
Individuality realized is the supreme attainment of the human soul, the master-master’s work of art. Individuality is sacred (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
We’ve been fighting from the beginning for organic architecture. That is, architecture where the whole is to the part as the part is to the whole, and where the nature of materials, the nature of the purpose, the nature of the entire performance becomes a necessity-architecture of democracy (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
All I learned from Eliel Saarinen was how to make out an expense account (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
Space. The continual becoming: invisible fountain from which all rhythms flow and to which they must pass. Beyond time or infinity (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
We are all affected by Le Corbusier, Frank Lloyd Wright, Alvar Aalto, and Mies van der Rohe. But no less than Bramante, Borromini, and Bernini. Architecture is a tradition, a long continuum. Whether we break with tradition or enhance it, we are still connected to that past. We evolve (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
We do not learn so much by our successes as we learn by failures - our own and others! Especially if we see the failures properly corrected (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
Boston: Clear out eight hundred thousand people and preserve it as a museum piece. New York: Prison towers and modern posters for soap and whiskey. Pittsburgh: Abandon it (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
In the early work of Frank Lloyd Wright - and you can also see it with Mies - they make new ground by raising the ground. Frank Lloyd Wright did it so beautifully with the Robie House. The roof becomes almost a new ground (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
Architecture isman’sgreat sense of himself embodied in a world of his own making. It may rise as high in quality only as its source because great art isgreat life. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
Maybe we can show government how to operate better as a result of better architecture. Eventually, I think Chicago will be the most beautiful great city left in the world. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
Beautiful buildings are more than scientific. They are true organisms, spiritually conceived; works of art, using the best technology by inspiration rather than the idiosyncrasies of mere taste or any averaging by the committee mind. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
Human beings can be beautiful. If they are not beautiful it is entirely their own fault. It is what they do to themselves that makes them ugly. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
It is a terrific thing to get a building built that has the qualities of greatness in it (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
We create our buildings and then they create us. Likewise, we construct our circle of friends and our communities and then they construct us. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
The dynamic ideal we call democracy, gradually growing up in the human heart for two-thousand five hundred years, at least, has now every opportunity to found the natural democratic state in these United States of America by way of natural economic order and a natural, or organic, architecture. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
The best thing to do is go as far out as you can get... what you regard as ‘too far’ - and when others follow, as they will, move on (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
Think simple’ as my old master used to say - meaning reduce the whole of its parts into the simplest terms, getting back to first principles. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
When we choose a man to beautify our towns, we do not automatically call on the major artists of the world. ... We now lavishly praise Frank Lloyd Wright, but we never made any community use of him, though he longed for the chance. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
For me [ Giovanni Lorenzo ] Bernini, [Francesco ] Borromini, and [Donato] Bramante have been as significant as Alvar Aalto, Frank Lloyd Wright, Le Corbusier, and Louis Kahn. I still marvel at their works, which have a quality and a timelessness that I seek to have in our projects. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
It is where life is fundamental and free that men develop the vision needed to reveal the human soul in the blossoms it puts forth. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
Youth is a circumstance you can’t do anything about. The trick is to grow up without getting old. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
New York City is a great monument to the power of money and greed... a race for rent. (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
A free America means just this: individual freedom for all, rich or poor, or else this system of government we call democracy is only an expedient to enslave man to the machine and make him like it (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
A great architect is not made by way of a brain nearly so much as he is made by way of a cultivated, enriched heart (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
A man is a fool if he drinks before he reaches the age of 50, and a fool if he doesn't afterward (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
An architect's most useful tools are an eraser at the drafting board, and a wrecking bar at the site (Frank Lloyd Wright Quotes)
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 Quotes)
