—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“If it was not absolutely necessary, it was the foolishest thing ever done.”
—William Lamb Melbourne, 2nd Viscount (1779–1848)
“It was always the work that was the gyroscope in my life. I don’t know who could have lived with me. As an architect you’re absolutely devoured. A woman’s cast in a lot of roles and a man isn’t. I couldn’t be an architect and be a wife and mother.”
—Eleanore Kendall Pettersen (b. 1916)
