Quote by Frank Lloyd Wright
The physician can bury his mistakes, but the architect can only advise his client to plant vines - so they should go as far as possible from home to build their first buildings.
Summary
This quote highlights the contrasting nature of mistakes made by two professions - physicians and architects. While physicians can hide or rectify their errors, architects cannot do the same with their designs and constructions. Instead, architects can only suggest their clients to "plant vines" or create distractions that can potentially divert attention from any flaws. The quote implies that architects should take risks and explore new territories away from familiar settings to minimize the consequences of their mistakes and maximize their chances of success when building their initial structures.
