A truly moral health care system should start out by covering all of its citizens with basic health care. It would not be seduced by its technology and fancy buildings. (Buildings Quotes)
You see all these old buildings [in Rio] going down or catching fire overnight, and it is so sad. I am very connected with these buildings because they are our history. It is the only one that we have. (Buildings Quotes)
Chicago’s such a great city because it’s got so many different brilliantly architecturally looking buildings, and you can really modify that city. (Buildings Quotes)
No trees, sky or ground. No other buildings or fields. No winding path, no brambles, no outhouse or pond or flowers, no sunshine or children playing. Just blackness. (Buildings Quotes)

I moved from a mountain with one traffic light to New York City when I was 17, and it was an amazing, eye opening, creative adventure. I would walk through the streets of Manhattan looking up at these huge buildings, amazed that I didn’t know a single person in any of them. (Buildings Quotes)
In 1964, when we first arrived in New York City, I remember vividly seeing the skyline of Manhattan, and our first proposal of 1964 was to wrap two lower Manhattan buildings. We never got permission. (Buildings Quotes)
I love New York. It just reminds me of so many movies... I look up at buildings, and feel like Godzilla should be climbing up them or something. (Buildings Quotes)

(Buildings Quotes)
Whatever the political injustices are that created an environment that brought this about, it was not Americans who flew those planes into those buildings. And we should remember that. The crimes against humanity were perpetrated by people who were Arab Muslims. (Buildings Quotes)
I think that in a weird way, as technology gets more sophisticated, people have become less aware of it. It’s become part of our day to day life.
