“A vital difference between the professional man and a man of business is that money making to the professional man should, by virtue of his assumption, be incidental; to the businessman it is primary. Money has its limitations; while it may buy quantity, there is something beyond it and that is quality.” MenShouldMayDifferencesQualityVirtuePrimariesLimitationMaking MoneyAssumptionQuantityConsumerismBusinessmanOverconsumption Author:Frank Lloyd Wright
“England and all civilised nations stand in deadly peril of not having enough to eat. As mouths multiply, food resources dwindle. Land is a limited quantity, and the land that will grow wheat is absolutely dependent on difficult and capricious natural phenomena... I hope to point a way out of the colossal dilemma. It is the chemist who must come to the rescue of the threatened communities. It is through the laboratory that starvation may ultimately be turned into plenty... The fixation of atmospheric nitrogen is one of the great discoveries, awaiting the genius of chemists.” WayMayEnoughScienceNationsGrowsDifficultCommunityNaturalLandFoodGeniusMouthsDiscoveryResourcesEnglandPlentyDependentQuantityRescueThreatenedPerilLaboratoryDilemmaStarvationWheatChemistColossalCapriciousCivilisedFixationNatural PhenomenaNitrogen Author:William Crookes

“The peculiarity of sculpture is that it creates a three-dimensional object in space. Painting may strive to give on a two-dimensional plane, the illusion of space, but it is space itself as a perceived quantity that becomes the peculiar concern of the sculptor. We may say that for the painter space is a luxury; for the sculptor it is a necessity.” GivingMayTwoThreeSpaceObjectsPaintingIllusionConcernStrivePainterLuxuryPlanesPeculiarQuantitySculptureSculptors Author:Herbert Read
