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

Philip Johnson is a highbrow. A highbrow is a man educated beyond his capacity. His house is a box of glass — not shelter. The meaning of the word shelter includes privacy.
