Architecture starts when you carefully put two bricks together. There it begins.

Building art is a synthesis of life in materialised form. We should try to bring in under the same hat not a splintered way of thinking, but all in harmony together.

Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight, dinner, soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays, I go Fridays.

Political promises are much like marriage vows. They are made at the beginning of the relationship between candidate and voter, but are quickly forgotten.

The speed of the leader is the speed of the gang.

In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order.

Thinking is more interesting than knowing, but less interesting than looking.

Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other.

There is no racial or ethnic involvement in Thanksgiving, and people who may be very distant from the Christian system can see the beauty and the positive spirit that comes from the holiday.

Don't aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally.

They can do without architecture who have no olives nor wines in the cellar.

Life is all about balance, and there are certain times of the year - birthday, anniversary, holidays - that are meant to be enjoyed without guilt. That being said, Thanksgiving is a meal - it's not a Thanksgiving day, and it's not a Thanksgiving week.

I think we take it for granted that if you are with your husband after 30 years, then he is the love of your life.

The only way to enjoy anything in this life is to earn it first.

Eating is not merely a material pleasure. Eating well gives a spectacular joy to life and contributes immensely to goodwill and happy companionship. It is of great importance to the morale.

What worries you, masters you.

A beautiful woman is the best investment in marriage a man can make. And anybody who advises otherwise is talking sheer nonsense.

Each day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth, every going to rest and sleep a little death.

A woman should never be seen eating or drinking, unless it be lobster salad and Champagne, the only true feminine and becoming viands.

A champion is afraid of losing. Everyone else is afraid of winning.

If you would take, you must first give, this is the beginning of intelligence.

The final forming of a person's character lies in their own hands.

Success makes so many people hate you. I wish it wasn't that way. It would be wonderful to enjoy success without seeing envy in the eyes of those around you.

May you live all the days of your life.
