“It is new design by architects versus world revolution by political leadership.”
“The difference between design and research seems to be a question of new versus good. Design doesn't have to be new, but it has to be good. Research doesn't have to be good, but it has to be new.

So ultimately design and research are aiming for the same destination, just approaching it from different directions.”

“...architects (should) involve themselves continuously in anticipatory design as recommended by Buckminster Fuller”
“The Reinvention and Revolution of our Entrepreneurship and Leadership lays in the rebirth of our mind's eye.”
“Nothing existed outside ourselves and school. For us, the world of politics, social revolution, the war in Vietnam never happened.”
