A vital difference between the professional man and a man of business is that money making to the professional man should, by virtue of his assumption, be incidental; to the businessman it is primary. Money has its limitations; while it may buy quantity, there is something beyond it and that is quality.

Frank Wright 274 quotes

Regard it as just as desirable...

Regard it as just as desirable to build a chicken house as to build a cathedral. The size of the project means little in art, beyond the money matter. It is the quality of the character that really counts.

The good building is not one that hurts the landscape, but one which makes the landscape more beautiful than it was before the building was built.

Love is the virtue of the Heart, Sincerity is the virtue of the Mind, Decision is the virtue of the Will, Courage is the virtue of the Spirit.

The longer I live the more beautiful life becomes. If you foolishly ignore beauty, you will soon find yourself without it. Your life will be impoverished. But if you invest in beauty, it will remain with you all the days of your life.

Architecture is for the young. If our teenagers don't get architecture - if they are not inspired, (then) we won't have the architecture that we must have if this country is going to be beautiful.

You can't make an architect. But you can open the doors and windows toward the light as you see it.

Individuality realized is the supreme attainment of the human soul, the master-master's work of art. Individuality is sacred.

I find it hard to believe that the machine would go into the creative artist's hand even were that magic hand in true place. It has been too far exploited by industrialism and science at expense to art and true religion.

I know the price of success: dedication, hard work, and an unremitting devotion to the things you want to see happen.

Frank Wright 274 quotes

Science can give us only the t...

Science can give us only the tools in the box, these mechanical miracles that it has already given us. But of what use to us are miraculous tools until we have mastered the humane, cultural use of them? We do not want to live in a world where the machine has mastered the man; we want to live in a world where man has mastered the machine.

Boston: Clear out eight hundred thousand people and preserve it as a museum piece. New York: Prison towers and modern posters for soap and whiskey. Pittsburgh: Abandon it.

The measure of a man's culture...

The measure of a man's culture is the measure of his appreciation. We are ourselves what we appreciate and no more.

Youth is a circumstance you can't do anything about. The trick is to grow up without getting old.

A box is more a coffin for the human spirit than an inspiration.

The only thing wrong with architecture is architects.

The insolence of authority is endeavoring to substitute money for ideas.

Early in my career...I had to choose between an honest arrogance and a hypercritical humility... I deliberately choose an honest arrogance, and I've never been sorry.

The outcome of the city will depend on the race between the automobile and the elevator, and anyone who bets on the elevator is crazy.
