What I like about cities is that everything is king size, the beauty and the ugliness.

I have a place in Chicago and I get there as much as I can... The city is so unbelievably beautiful. It's one of the greatest cities on the planet. My heart beats differently when I'm in Chicago. It slows down and I feel more at ease.

I am travelling half the year around the world, every year, so coming home is one of the most beautiful things.

I love new cities, and if I haven't travelled for a month, the need to go somewhere starts to gets under my skin.

You can't really say what is beautiful about a place, but the image of the place will remain vividly with you.

In the city, you're always looking around, observing everything. In some neighborhoods, your life can depend on it. The details change constantly.

I like to go out and see what a city's all about.

I love cities, I spend most of my life talking about cities. And the design of cities does have an effect on your life. You're lucky if you can see trees out of your window and you have a square nearby, or a bar, a cornershop, a surgery. Then you're living well.

All cities are impressive in their way, because they represent the aspiration of men to lead a common life; those people who wish to live agreeable lives, and in constant intercourse with one another, will build a city as beautiful as Paris.

I love traveling, I love waking up in a new city every day.
