Building Quotes - page 3
From a building right in front of my windows, I can observe the speed of the sunrises and sunsets. The voices of children playing, laughing, yelling, and crying on the playground crawl up to the eighth floor, where I write. Their voices sound so innocent from a distance.
Andrea Hirata
If you're lucky, and a building succeeds, the real product has many more dimensions than you can ever imagine. You have the sun, the light, the rain, the birds, the feel.
Peter Zumthor
Normally, architects render a service. They implement what other people want. This is not what I do. I like to develop the use of the building together with the client, in a process, so that as we go along we become more intelligent.
Peter Zumthor
But it is true that sometimes an enveloping darkness aids one to clearer vision; as in a panorama building, for example, where the obscurity about the entrance prepares one better for the climax, and gives the scene depicted a more real and vivid appearance.
Pierre Loti
Rome has not seen a modern building in more than half a century. It is a city frozen in time.
Richard Meier
When I design buildings, I think of the overall composition, much as the parts of a body would fit together. On top of that, I think about how people will approach the building and experience that space.
Tadao Ando
In the West there has always been the attempt to try make the religious building, whether it's a Medieval or Renaissance church, an eternal object for the celebration of God. The material chosen, such as stone, brick, or concrete, is meant to eternally preserve what is inside.
Tadao Ando
The level of detail and craft is something that's inscribed within the original design concept. And so when I begin to draw, I know what kind of detailing I want the building to have.
Tadao Ando
It is idle to say that nations can struggle to outdo each other in building armaments and never use them. History demonstrates the contrary, and we have but to go back to the last war to see the appalling effect of nations competing in great armaments.
Frank B. Kellogg
The first condition of success for the League of Nations is, therefore, a firm understanding between the British Empire and the United States of America and France and Italy that there will be no competitive building up of fleets or armies between them.
Arthur Henderson
Thick smoke like a herd of black horses was rising over the massive building and being blown around by the wind.
Ismail Kadaré
I'm not afraid of heights. I rock climb. I can repel off the side of a building.
Kate Hudson
If I had a magic wand, I would live in a building in New York, big enough so my friends, my family could all have apartments in it. We'd raise our kids in the same space and have backyard barbecues and get old and fat together.
Liz Murray
Networking is an essential part of building wealth.
Armstrong Williams
If a building becomes architecture, then it is art.
Arne Jacobsen
Whenever we witness art in a building, we are aware of an energy contained by it.
Arthur Erickson
It's such a joy to work with different ensembles and create a collaboration. Rehearsing and building a performance is very interesting for me.
Cecilia Bartoli
I view my career like a rubber-band ball in that every role is a new experience building toward something bigger.
Jamie Chung
When I was building the Vietnam Memorial, I never once asked the veterans what it was like in the war, because from my point of view, you don't pry into other people's business.
Maya Lin
Some guys can do more talking in the ring, other guys do posing, body building, whatever the hell they do in the ring. But I don't have the big body, and I'm not the big smooth talker, but I can get in the ring and wrestle.
Owen Hart
Suspense is very important. Even though this is humor and they're short stories, that theory of building suspense is still there.
Sergio Aragones
For the first time in history all the major countries in the world are pushing together to reach this goal... building something in space that is really for all humankind.
Umberto Guidoni
