So I was shampooing at 14. But I’ve always thought that had I the opportunity for an education, I would have been an architect. There’s no question about it Picture Quote #1

The ultimate goal of the architect... is to create a paradise. Every house, every product of architecture... should be a fruit of our endeavour to build an earthly paradise for people Picture Quote #1

Knowing what you need doesn’t always mean you know how to get it, though. I’d spent a long time hiding in my cave.

A fool, but nevertheless too smart not to know I was the architect of my own demise, that it was time to put my past behind me. It was time to stop allowing the white elephants to stand unspoken of in my living room Picture Quote #1

Nature has provided us a spectacular toolbox. The toolbox exists. An architect far better and smarter than us has given us that toolbox, and we now have the ability to use it Picture Quote #1
