Your life will be no better than the plans you make and the action you take. You are the architect and builder of your own life, fortune, destiny.

If you were a son of mine, I wouldn't want you to be an architect, because it's a tough way to be in the world.

Architecture is the story of how we see ourselves. It is the architect's job to service everyday life.

Who knows, maybe I am simply a talented architect?

You can say I'm not the easiest architect in the world, because I'm always trying to push the limits.

I don't build because I am an architect. I can make true architecture because I do not build.

As an architect, you cannot be so arrogant as to say you are 100% sure about what you do.

Let every man feel that he is the architect and builder of his own life, and that he proposes to make a success of it by working.

If, early on, you know how things are put together, then you can build. The architect is in charge of making - he is not an artist.

Architecture is not a profession for the faint-hearted, the weak-willed, or the short-lived.
