Famous quotes containing the word architecture:

    “No architecture is so haughty as that which is simple.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    “In short, the building becomes a theatrical demonstration of its functional ideal. In this romanticism, High-Tech architecture is, of course, no different in spirit—if totally different in form—from all the romantic architecture of the past.”
    —Dan Cruickshank (b. 1949)

    “Art is a jealous mistress, and, if a man have a genius for painting, poetry, music, architecture or philosophy, he makes a bad husband and an ill provider.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
