Now i dont know why i am posting this in the Heap. But i did find it interesting in my readings today.

He is refering to architecture but it can be applied to several things. This is from a message to young architects about their future.


"Young man in architecture, wherever you are and whatever your age, or whatever our job, we - the youth of America - should be the psychological shock-troops trown into the action against the corruption of this supreme American ideal."

-Frank Lloyd Wright, 1931

Wow, Frankie....putting the bar pretty high for the Youth of America, aren't we? What happened to sitting around in the basement eating Hot Pockets and watching syndicated sitcoms? I can barely say that whole sentence out loud.

What is this supreme American ideal?

The morality implied by the behavior and dialog of TV show characters.

Mouse once said," The dark is always different at night." Pretty heady stuff.

Now, I think FLW was an excellent architect and have always been somewhat enamored of his work, but he was also kind of a mess...truth be told. :)

However, good quote.
