"Architecture is the will of an epoch translated into space." ― Ludwig Mies van der Rohe Topic(s): Cool More From Ludwig Mies van der Rohe "True education is concerned not only with practical goals but also with values. Our aims assure us of our material life, our values make possible our spiritual life." "A chair is a very difficult object. A skyscraper is almost easier. That is why Chippendale is famous." "Less is more." More In Cool "My dad was kind of a pool shark and had a Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin thing going on. I’ve always been fascinated by the fifties because of him. There was a hip, cool, anything-goes atmosphere back then, but looking good was still a priority."― Dylan McDermott "They’re a different generation, those kids; kids that are under the age of twelve. They’re not that impressed by rock music, you know what I mean? They’re like, it’s cool and everything, but whatever. They’re just as impressed by YouTube."― Frank Black "To act coolly, intelligently and prudently in perilous circumstances is the test of a man – and also a nation."― Adlai E. Stevenson
