I'm not afraid to take an idea to the extreme.

"The past is always tense, the future perfect."

We believe that architecture is a tool to improve lives, and that's the only reason why architecture is important.

"Memory is a strange thing. It doesn't work like I thought it did. We are so used to thinking of it as a camera or a tape recorder, but it's not like that at all. It's more like a painter. It creates a picture, but it's not always the same picture."

The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

我不相信后悔，我相信从中吸取教训。

"The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return."
