2 Creative Quotations from Le Corbusier (Charles-Édouard Jeanneret-Gris) (1887-1965) born Oct 6 Swiss architect, city planner; He pioneered functionalist architecture with the use of reinforced concrete and houses as a machine for living.

3 Architecture is the learned game, correct and magnificent, of forms assembled in the light.

4 I prefer drawing to talking. Drawing is faster, and allows less room for lies.

5 The materials of city planning are: sky, space, trees, steel and cement ; in that order and that hierarchy.

6 Our own epoch is determining, day by day, its own style. Our eyes, unhappily, are unable yet to discern it.

7 A hundred times have I thought New York is a catastrophe and fifty times: It is a beautiful catastrophe.
