The Art of Seeing. It is essential to an architect to know how to see: I mean, to see in such a way that the vision is not overpowered by rational analysis.

I think that the ideal space must contain elements of magic, serenity, sorcery and mystery.

I don't divide architecture, landscape and gardening; to me they are one.

Life deprived of beauty is not worthy of being called human.

Architecture is a art when one consciously or unconsciously creates aesthetic emotion in the atmosphere and when this environment produces well being.

My house is my refuge, an emotional piece of architecture, not a cold piece of convenience.

All architecture, which does not express serenity, fails in its spiritual mission. Thus, it has been a mistake to abandon the shelter of walls for the inclemency of large areas of glass.

Don't ask me about this building or that one, don't look at what I do, see what I see.

Only in intimate communion with solitude may man find himself. Solitude is good company and my architecture is not for those who fear or shun it.

A garden must combine the poetic and he mysterious with a feeling of serenity and joy

Beauty is the oracle that speaks to us all.

Life is a dream. It moves from cause to cause, effect to effect, one point to another, one state of existence to another.

...I have great hopes for the possibility of a dynamic universalism that respects all our people.

Our character is but the stamp on our souls of the free choices of good and evil we have made through life.

Whatever else has been said about me personally is unimportant. When I sing, I believe. I'm honest.

I played a lot of tough clubs in my time. Once a guy in one of those clubs wanted to bet me $10 that I was dead. I was afraid to bet.

I've done illustration on the side. But other than that, comics have been my main things.

I think that human beings, even the ones who are sometimes hurting you, are often very, very confused at their center.

Moreover, since the sun remains stationary, whatever appears as a motion of the sun is really due rather to the motion of the earth.

I'll never forget where I came from, and that my home is forever Sweet Home Alabama!
