“Architecture should have little to do with problem solving - rather it should create desirable conditions and opportunities hitherto thought impossible.”
“Results are obtained by exploiting opportunities, not by solving problems. ”
“The law of perceptual problem solving, or peekaboo, should now make more sense. It may have evolved to ensure that the search for visual solutions is inherently pleasurable rather than frustrating, so that you don’t give up too easily.”
“We treat desire as a problem to be solved, address what desire is for and focus on that something and how to acquire it rather than on the nature and the sensation of desire, though often it is the desire between us and the object of desire that fills the space in between with the blue of longing.”
“Engineers like to solve problems. If there are no problems handily available, they will create their own problems.”
“The significant problems we have cannot be solved at the same level of thinking with which we created them.”
