“Beauty connotes humanity. We call a natural object beautiful because we see that its form expresses fitness, the perfect fulfillment of function.”
Moshe Safdie“He who seeks truth shall find beauty. He who seeks beauty shall find vanity. He who seeks order shall find gratification. He who seeks gratification shall be disappointed. He who considers himself the servant of his fellow beings shall find the joy of self-expression. He who seeks self-expression shall fall into the pit of arrogance.”
Moshe Safdie“Architecture has joined the world of fashion, but fashion is passing and architecture is timeless.”
Moshe Safdie“There is a profound ethic to architecture which is different from the other arts.”
Moshe Safdie“Architecture should be rooted in the past, and yet be part of our own time and forward looking.”
Moshe Safdie
