We are all fools in love.

I don't like defining myself. I just am.

A city’s architecture should inspire its citizens.

I'm drawn to a lovely quote by St. Augustine in "The City of God," where he says, "It's a sin to judge any man by his post." In modern English that would mean it's a sinto come to any view of who you should talk to, dependent on their business card. It's not the post that should count. According to St. Augustine, only God can really put everybody in their place; he's going to do that on the Day of Judgment, with angels and trumpets, and the skies will open. Insane idea, if you're a secularist person, like me. But something very valuable in that idea, nevertheless.

孔子说：“陪君子说话要注意三种毛病：没到说的时候就说，叫做急躁；到该说的时候不说，叫做隐瞒；不顾对方的表情就说，叫做睁眼瞎。”
