  • 2. In general I was a good kid. It usually took a lot to make me mad. But once I reached the boiling point I lost all rational control.

  • 2. Designed by architects with honorable intentions but hands of palsy.
  • 3. My interest in architecture has always been sculptural. Most of my photography is of architecture.
