“When the old way of seeing was displaced, a hollowness came into architecture. Our buildings show a constant effort to fill that void, to recapture that sense of life which was once to be found in any house or shed. Yet the sense of place is not to be recovered through any attitude, device, or style, but through the principles of pattern, spirit, and context.” WayShowsSpiritFoundHouseEffortAttitudePrinciplesSeeingStyleBuildingConstantPatternsArchitectureDevicesVoidShedOld WaysHollownessSense Of Place Author:Jonathan Hale

“People look at my competitive spirit, and they automatically attach it to the thing that's most similar, most easily recognizable, which is Michael [Jordan's] competitive spirit. I'm different. I enjoy building. I enjoy the process of putting the puzzle together, and then the byproduct of that, the consequence of that, is beating somebody. That becomes the cherry on top, the icing on the cake.” PeopleLooksDifferentTogetherSpiritProcessEnjoyBuildingConsequenceCakePuzzlesJordanCherriesIcingIcing On The CakeCompetitive Spirit Author:Kobe Bryant
