Text Quotes
I think mobile homes are a blight on the planet. Attractive, affordable housing is possible, and I’m out to prove it.  (Dan Phillips Quotes) Human beings are a social species. We like to hang together in groups, just like wildebeests, just like lions. Wildebeests don’t hang with lions because lions eat wildebeests. Human beings are like that. We do what that group does that we’re trying to identify with.  (Dan Phillips Quotes) Building codes are a good thing. People who throw rocks at inspectors are being naive. It’s a lot like police officers; we want them around unless they stop us for a ticket. It’s the same with inspectors.  (Dan Phillips Quotes) For centuries, building materials were free. You want to build a house, you cut down some trees. But we haven’t been thinking about the cost to the planet.  (Dan Phillips Quotes) People have been doing this for hundreds of thousands of years: using whatever is available to build shelter. If you ponder what could be used, then building materials are everywhere.  (Dan Phillips Quotes) I decided to set out to prove that you could make a reasonable living building for the poor using recycled materials and only hiring unskilled labor.  (Dan Phillips Quotes) Repetition creates pattern. If I have a hundred of these, a hundred of those, it doesn’t make any difference what these and those are. If I can repeat anything, I have the possibility of a pattern from hickory nuts and chicken eggs, shards of glass, branches. It doesn’t make any difference.  (Dan Phillips Quotes) We have cultural expectations that everyone needs a dining room, yet they’re only used three times a year. But if I put a bone handle on the door of an upper-end brick home, I’m making an outlandish statement.  (Dan Phillips Quotes) I was a dancer of no repute. But dance taught me a lot. You walk into a dance studio knowing you have to walk out with a dance. You improvise.  (Dan Phillips Quotes)
