I approach each project with a clean slate, trying to reinvent what architecture can be.
"Sometimes the hardest journeys are the ones that take you back to yourself."
I never make the mistake of arguing with people for whose opinions I have no respect.
"Everything is a learning process: any time you fall down, it's just teaching you to stand up the next time."
Never outshine the master. Always make those above you feel comfortably superior.
The reality is: sometimes you lose. And you're never too good to lose. You're never too big to lose. You're never too smart to lose. It happens.
