The mission of an architect is to help people understand how to make life more beautiful, the world a better one for living in, and to give reason, rhyme, and meaning to life.

Frank Lloyd Wright

Bureaucrats: they are dead at 30 and buried at 60. They are like custard pies; you can’t nail them to a wall.

Nature is my manifestation of God.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

God Nature Religious Spiritual
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
If you wisely invest in beauty, it will remain with you all the days of your life.

The human race built most nobly when limitations were greatest.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

Greatness Human Limitation
The primitive ideals of centralization are now largely self-defeating. Human crucifixion by vertically on the now static checkerboard of the old city is pattern already in agony; yet for lack of any organic planning it is going on and on-not living, but rather hanging by its eyebrows from its nervous system.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

All fine architectural values are human values, else not valuable.
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

Human Material Value
Give me the luxuries of life and I will gladly do without the necessities.

There is nothing more uncommon than common sense.

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

Design Each Other Material Nature Oneself Philosophy Purpose
More and more, so it seems to me, light is the beautifier of the building.

Youth is not an age thing. It’s a quality. Once you’ve had it, you never lose it.

Early in life I had to choose between honest arrogance and hypocritical humility. I chose honest arrogance and have seen no occasion to change.
