Quotations regarding 'Building'

Choose a letter: 
Nothing is as dangerous in architecture as dealing with separated problems. If we split life into separated problems we split the possibilities to make good building art.
Alvar Aalto, Finnish Architect (1898-1976)
Building art is a synthesis of life in materialised form. We should try to bring in under the same hat not a splintered way of thinking, but all in harmony together.
Alvar Aalto, Finnish Architect (1898-1976)
God gives me the children's ministry heart and patience. This is what He wants. It's awesome. I don't know where He's gonna take it-but God is building this thing.
Willie Aames, American Actor (1960-  )
But the key shift in focus will be from counter-insurgency operations to more and more cooperation with Iraqi security forces and to building Iraqi security capacity.
John Abizaid, American Soldier (1951-  )
The way forward is by building political support for republican and democratic objectives across Ireland and by winning support for these goals internationally.
Gerry Adams, Irish Politician (1948-  )
This art of acting is a process I love very much. It's an unbelievably fulfilling experience for me and I look forward to building upon my art in the years to come.
Greg Akcelrod, French Actor (1982-  )
Hussein has chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies.
Madeleine Albright, American Statesman (1937-  )
What you make up in your heads sticks if it's good, falls out if it's bad. If we still remember something a day after we made it up, it might be worth building on.
Benny Anderson, -
The level of detail and craft is something that's inscribed within the original design concept. And so when I begin to draw, I know what kind of detailing I want the building to have.
Tadao Ando, Japanese Architect (1941-  )
When I design buildings, I think of the overall composition, much as the parts of a body would fit together. On top of that, I think about how people will approach the building and experience that space.
Tadao Ando, Japanese Architect (1941-  )
In the West there has always been the attempt to try make the religious building, whether it's a Medieval or Renaissance church, an eternal object for the celebration of God. The material chosen, such as stone, brick, or concrete, is meant to eternally preserve what is inside.
Tadao Ando, Japanese Architect (1941-  )
But in Japan, there's nothing like that, since the temple is made of wood. The divine spirit inside the building is eternal, so the enclosure doesn't have to be.
Tadao Ando, Japanese Architect (1941-  )
Gender equality is more than a goal in itself. It is a precondition for meeting the challenge of reducing poverty, promoting sustainable development and building good governance.
Kofi Annan, Statesman (1938-  )
I don't have any formula for ousting a dictator or building democracy. All I can suggest is to forget about yourself and just think of your people. It's always the people who make things happen.
Corazon Aquino, Statesman (1933-  )
Suspense is very important. Even though this is humor and they're short stories, that theory of building suspense is still there.
Sergio Aragones, Spanish Cartoonist (1937-  )
Men of sense often learn from their enemies. It is from their foes, not their friends, that cities learn the lesson of building high walls and ships of war.
Aristophanes, Greek Poet
The fact is if we do our job right, if we keep worrying not about polls but about the jobs of the American people, about their health care, about their ability to educate their kids, stay in their homes and own their homes, send their kids to college, the basic pillars of a middle-class life, if we keep worrying about the future and building a stronger future for this country, these things will take care of themselves.
David Axelrod, American Public Servant (1955-  )
I live in a high rise with my family part of the year in New York and I don't know three quarters of the people in the building. We live in the same square-footage and I wouldn't know who they were.
Dan Aykroyd, Canadian Comedian (1952-  )
We're building a great company, and we're very excited about the future of the company.
Jim Barksdale, American Businessman (1943-  )
Our people are excited about building solutions, and it's rewarding to see how much fun Netscape employees have doing something they think is relevant and important.
Jim Barksdale, American Businessman (1943-  )
