Oscar Niemeyer // “When the world becomes a better place, what will happen? Residences will become simpler, not divided between slums and palaces…the theaters, museums and stadiums will be even bigger because everyone will be able to afford them. Because the poor can’t use anything…they only know architecture from a distance. At least what I build they can enjoy by looking at it because it’s surprising, it’s different…but they can’t participate in anything. So, an architect has to be interested in political issues….just like any citizen.”
Debbie Harry // "I'm always motivated towards the future and creating new things...The most important thing is to be willing to challenge...you have to risk...and realize how important it is to put all of yourself on the line." --------------------------------------
Happy New Year everyone! ✨
Anna Fisher // "Going to space is important, I believe mankind was meant to explore, we need to push our frontiers."
Sidney Poitier // "I only saw myself as what I was...a human being."
Jacques Cousteau // "It takes generosity to discover the whole through others. If you realize you are only a violin, you can open yourself up to the world by playing your role in the concert."
Gore Vidal // "The unfed mind devours itself."
Saul Steinberg // "You must first...discard all the commonplaces...The things you discovered yesterday are no longer valid. It’s impossible to find anything new without first giving something up."
Charles Bukowski // "We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that death will tremble to take us."
Dalai Lama // "If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito."
Albert Schweitzer // "Do something wonderful, people may imitate it."
Isamu Noguchi // "We are a landscape of all we have seen."
Bruce Lee // "If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them."
