“I'm kind of like a guy who's missing a little bit of the guy gene. Like, I love steak, but the notion of golfing is the last thing I would want to do. I love women, but I'm also a mama's boy, and some of my best friends are women. So I'm kinda half guy's guy.” WantKindLittlesLastsGuyBitsHalfBoysMissingLittle BitNotionGenesMy Best FriendMamaGolfingSteakMama's Boy Author:Jim Gaffigan
“The entire hominid collection known today would barely cover a billiard table, ... the collection is so tantalizingly incomplete, and the specimens themselves often so fragmented and inconclusive, that more can be said about what is missing than about what is present. ...but ever since Darwin's work inspired the notion that fossils linking modern man and extinct ancestor would provide the most convincing proof of human evolution, preconceptions have led evidence by the nose in the study of fossil man.” MenHumansSaidTodayKnownStudyModernMissingEvolutionEvidenceTablesInspiredNotionProofNosesCollectionsAncestorFossilsConvincingIncompleteModern ManPreconceptionsFragmentedHuman EvolutionHominidsConvincing Evidence Author:John Reader
“There is a certain way of being human that is my way. I am called upon to live my life in this way, and not in imitation of anyone else's life.

“What I resist is techniques. I find techniques very problematic. So when critics talk about my work in those terms, I find that they miss the condition. I am comfortable with the notion of pattern and ornament as a system of organization, [but] for me it acts as a textile. So it's not about pattern, but the notion of architecture through the lens of textile, rather than architecture through the lens of brick and mortar.” TermConditionsMissingComfortableOrganizationCriticsNotionPatternsArchitectureTechniqueLensesBricksOrnamentsMortarTextilesBricks And Mortar Author:David Adjaye
