I have a lot of really close, important friends of mine who live in Los Angeles and a lot of good things in my life have happened to me in Los Angeles or have come from Los Angeles. That being said, it's too hot for me. The architecture is ugly. You can't walk anywhere. The food sucks. Everyone's carrying guns. It's like every time I go down there, the division between rich and poor becomes increasingly more and more marked until...Los Angeles seems to be up there with Bogota in terms of cities where the super rich are as rich as anybody on Earth but they live in gated communities and have black SUVs driving them with bodyguards and then the rest of the people live in fucking shanty towns. I've never seen it as bad as L.A. There's just no middle class. It's horrible.

Living in cities is an art, and we need the vocabulary of art, of style, to describe the peculiar relationship between man and material that exists in the continual creative play of urban living. The city as we imagine it, then, soft city of illusion, myth, aspiration, and nightmare, is as real, maybe more real, than the hard city one can locate on maps in statistics, in monographs on urban sociology and demography and architecture.

Talent finds its models, methods, and ends in society, exists for exhibition, and goes to the soul only for power to work. Genius is its own end, and draws its means and the style of its architecture from within.

Architecture is the mother of all arts and the finest architecture has the tendency to stir the soul. It is not only about bricks, drawings and paint but there should be a lot of application of mind and soul into it, to make it a great piece of architecture. According to Michael Graves “architecture is about the cultural setting and the ambience”. Only a trained eye can identify the beauty that is hidden behind a good work of architecture. An architect is the drawer of dreams because it is like a piece of frozen music that is in space. The difference between an architect and an artist is that an artist works with his heart whereas an architect works with his head. Architecture stands against the odds of time and passes from generation to generation like a piece of marvel such as the TajMahal. There are numerous quotes on architecture and here is a collection of those quotes.
