  • 3. I am as I've said merely competent. But in an age of incompetence that makes me extraordinary.

2 Amazing

  • 2. I'm not a screamer. I'm confrontational but I don't think that translates into anger.
  • 3. I think I would cope like anyone copes with any tragedy. I'm sure I would be very upset for a while and then there would come a point where I would either have to stay in this place of darkness and anger or I'd have to accept that it happened.

4 Anniversary

  • 2. That there's no more important decision in life than who you marry.

  • 2. There are no rules of architecture for a castle in the clouds.
  • 3. The intellectual force of the West is still dominant but other cultures are getting stronger. I expect that we will develop a new way of thinking in architecture and urban planning and that less will be based on our models.
