4 Anniversary

  • 2. We can't forget what happened on May 4th 1970 when four students gave up their lives because they had the American constitutional right of peaceful protest. They gave up their lives. And to sing that song in that spot on that anniversary was very emotional for us.
  • 3. You marry somebody you love everything about them. You grow to learn about them. You never learn everything.

5 Architecture

  • 1. The English light is so very subtle so very soft and misty that the architecture responded with great delicacy of detail.
  • 2. There is a powerful need for symbolism and that means the architecture must have something that appeals to the human heart. There is a powerful need for symbolism and that means the architecture must have something that appeals to the human heart.
  • 3. Any work of architecture that has with it some discussion some polemic I think is good. It shows that people are interested people are involved.
