We can choose between the future and the past, between reason and ignorance, between true compassion and mere ideology.

It's my goal to make a building as immaterial as possible. Architecture is a very material thing. It takes a lot of resources, so why not eliminate what you don't need as long as you're able to achieve the same result?

Helmut Jahn

No man is above the law, and no man is below it.

Theodore Roosevelt

A false friend and a shadow attend only while the sun shines

Benjamin Franklin

Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.

Mark Twain

I would have changed my last name if being famous were my goal.

Zach Galifianakis

History is the life of nations and of humanity. To seize and put into words, to describe directly the life of humanity or even of a single nation, appears impossible.

Leo Tolstoy

It is Christmas every time you let God love others through you . . . yes, it is Christmas every time you smile at your brother and offer him your hand.

Mother Teresa of Calcutta

No one ever approaches perfection except by stealth, and unknown to themselves.

William Hazlitt

I might believe in the Redeemer if his followers looked more redeemed.

Friedrich Nietzsche

All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Neither man nor woman is perfect or complete without the other. Thus, no marriage or family, no ward or stake is likely to reach its full potential until husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, men and women work together in unity of purpose, respecting and relying upon each other's strengths.

Sheri L. Dew

But virtue, as it never will be moved,Though lewdness court it in a shape of heaven,So lust, though to a radiant angel linked,Will sate itself in a celestial bedAnd prey on garbage.

William Shakespeare
