If you had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you
I would love the chance to ask follow-up questions of Susan Rice because David Gregory apparently did not avail himself of that opportunity. Greta, I just listened to the clip - I get tougher questions in the Bojangles drive-through than he asked her.
Architecture, of all the arts, is the one which acts the most slowly, but the most surely, on the soul.
Curiosity about life in all of its aspects, I think, is still the secret of great creative people.
I am not the least afraid to die
Slapped her then I asked her what's my name. She said N-I-C, the president of the N-Y-C.
The greatest architectural illusion is not Baroque fancy or Victorian flamboyant, but minimalism.
All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning.
Here, then, is what I wanted to tell you of my architecture. I created it with courage and idealism, but also with an awareness of the fact that what is important is life, friends and attempting to make this unjust world a better place in which to live.
I would love to be an Avenger or Wonder Woman. Pretty much any woman who can kick ass and take names, I am down! I have also always wanted to be a sultry mermaid or a bad ass fairy.
Without (my wife) Laurie, I would never be here right now, I know that. I would either be in a coffin, or stashed away doing a life sentence some place. Or running and hiding some place, if I was still alive. I'm certain I wouldn't be playing music. She's just been perfect for me. And she's a protector also; she protects me from myself, from temptations, and bad associations. She's constantly shielding me from walking the red hot coals of existing as a game.
The fact that I was going to be the first American woman to go into space carried huge expectations along with it.
It doesn't matter what kind of result will be in the end. I already win for myself.
The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it.
I try not to think about marks, the first place or gold medal. The most important thing is to show what you are capable of on ice. The rest will come on its own.
All fine architectural values are human values, else not valuable.
Once upon a time, people identified the god Neptune as the source of storms at sea. Today we call these storms hurricanes. . . . The only people who still call hurricanes acts of God are the people who write insurance forms.
The creative person wants to be a know-it-all. He wants to know about all kinds of things-ancient history, nineteenth century mathematics, current manufacturing techniques, hog futures. Because he never knows when these ideas might come together to form a new idea. It may happen six minutes later, or six months, or six years. But he has faith that it will happen.
You the type that be runnin ya mouth. See you on the block wanna run in ya house.
Architecture is really about well-being. I think that people want to feel good in a space. . . On the one hand it's about shelter, but it's also about pleasure.
