“It's amazing how you meet people through other people. I knew a racecar driver, Stefan Johansson, who was very hot. He introduced me to Jean Todt. He introduced me to a French doctor. He introduced me to a French architect who redid the Louvre with I.M. Pei. He introduced me to Daniel Boulud.”

“I feel lucky that I've been able to make a living from painting any idea that comes into my head.”

“The best thing about being an artist is the free clothing and getting to kiss pretty girls.”

“The architect aspires to build in a city as the artist aspires to exhibit his works in a museum.”

“When I started out, nearly every architect I knew was working in public practice; that's where the radical thinking was done. But, there's always a danger of looking back as our fathers did and saying, 'Things were better then.'”

“My dad designed houses and was an architect for many years.”
