“If Relativity Theory kills our deepest convictions, why not start by finding out why we believed in them for millennia?”

“Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and eventually degenerates into a racket.”

“I had a microscopic eye for the blemish, for the grain of ugliness which to me constituted the sole beauty of the object.”

“Flexibility makes buildings to be stronger, imagine what it can do to your soul.”
