You will find Goodness and Truth everywhere you go. If you have to choose, choose Truth. For that is closest to Earth. Keep close to the Earth, in that lies strength. Simplicity of heart is just as necessary for an architect as for a farmer or a minister if the architect is going to build great buildings.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

Goodness Lie Simplicity Strength Truth Yourself
The truth is more important than the facts.

FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

Design Each Other Material Nature Oneself Philosophy Purpose
Space is the breath of art.
