4 Anniversary

  • 2. We had a relationship that lasted 44 years. Herbert and I lived together 10 years before we were married. He always gave me a little heart for whatever anniversary.
  • 3. The bonds of matrimony are like any other bonds – they mature slowly.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Architecture is a slow business and city planning even slower.
  • 2. When I write now I do not invent situation characters or actions but rather structures and discursive forms textual groupings which are combined according to secret affinities among themselves as in architecture or the plastic arts.
  • 3. The mother art is architecture. Without an architecture of our own we have no soul of our own civilization.
