Many wealthy people are little more than janitors of their possessions.

Frank Lloyd Wright

I’m all in favor of keeping dangerous weapons out of the hands of fools. Let’s start with typewriters.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

Danger Fool Hands Myself Start Weapon
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.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

Beautiful Ignorance Life Live Myself Perspective Philosophy Yourself
I prefer honest arrogance to hypocritical modesty.

The Machine is Intellect mastering the drudgery of the earth that the plastic art may live; that the margin of leisure and strength by which man’s life upon earth can be made beautiful, may immeasurably widen; its function ultimately to emancipate human expression!

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.

Goodness Lie Simplicity Strength Truth Yourself
We have no longer an outside and an inside as two separate things. Now the outside may come inside and the inside may and does go outside. They are of each other. Form and function thus become one in design and execution if the nature of materials and method and purpose are all in unison.
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.

A professional is one who does his best work when he feels the least like working.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

Feeling Himself Oneself
Now a work of art is a work of nature, but it is a work of human nature. It is a work of the mind: and it’s a work of the mind in circumstances for an occasion which, to which, for which, and which it may be supremely natural and simple and effective.
