Famous quotes containing the word architects:

    ““Where do architects and designers get their ideas?” The answer, of course, is mainly from other architects and designers, so is it mere casuistry to distinguish between tradition and plagiarism?”
    —Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)

    “All architects want to live beyond their deaths.”
    —Philip Johnson (b. 1906)

    “Napoleon wanted to turn Paris into Rome under the Caesars, only with louder music and more marble. And it was done. His architects gave him the Arc de Triomphe and the Madeleine. His nephew Napoleon III wanted to turn Paris into Rome with Versailles piled on top, and it was done. His architects gave him the Paris Opera, an addition to the Louvre, and miles of new boulevards.”
    —Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
