“Art is a jealous mistress, and, if a man have a genius for painting, poetry, music, architecture, or philosophy, he makes a bad husband, and an ill provider, and should be wise in season, and not fetter himself with duties which will embitter his day”

Joseph Addison
“I'm not going to miss it. Most in the architectural community say (architecture) is an art form. I'm more concerned about the functionality of the building.”
Chris Brooks
“Architecture is a visual art, and the buildings speak for themselves.”
Julia Morgan
