Who said the following Phrases? Where did they say it? What does it mean?

Lebbeus Woods: What is architecture

“I would say that architecture, as we understand it today, differs from building in that the concept, or ideas, it embodies are
formulated in a unique, and not merely generic, way. In order for this to be so, it must originate in a single mind–the mind of an
architect.”

Joseph Godlewski: textbook

The problem with straightforward definitions is that they tend to be static and singular rather than recognizing architecture
as a contested site with many varied meanings to different groups of people. As this anthology reveals, historically there have
been competing claims as to what constitutes architecture.”

Mario Gooden

“a discourse on black subjectivity in contemporary architectural theory is virtually non-existent”

Adolf Loos

“The modern man who tattoos himself is either a criminal or a degenerate.”

Leon Battista Alberti: On the art of of Building

“Let us therefore begin thus: the whole matter of building is composed of lineaments and structure.”

Ludwig Mies van der rohe

“less is more”

Zaha Hadid

“I don't think that architecture is only about shelter, is only about a very simple enclosure. It should be able to excite you, to
calm you, to make you think.”

Marcus Vitruvius Pollio’s: The Ten Books on Architecture

This knowledge is the child of practice and theory. Practice is the continuous and regular exercise of employment where
manual work is done with any necessary material according to the design of a drawing. Theory, on the other hand, is the
ability to demonstrate and explain the productions of dexterity on the principles of proportion.”

Nikolaus Pevsner: An outline of European Architecture

“A bicycle shed is a building; Lincoln Cathedral is a piece of architecture. Nearly everything that encloses space on a scale
sufficient for a human being to move in is a building; the term architecture applies only to buildings designed with a view to
aesthetic appeal.

Michael Hays: textbook

Theory is a practice explicitly ready to undertake its self-critique and effect its own transformation. And, like architecture itself, theory is an appetite for modifying and expanding reality, a desire to organize a new vision of a world perceived as unsatisfactory or incomplete—such will be architectural theory’s proper utopia.

Li jie, Yingzao Fashi

The emperor Shenzong promoted the formulation of regulations on the construction of defensible cities and city structures. The most important part of those regulations is related to estimating and controlling labor use and materials to prevent waste
and false estimates

Adolf Loos: Ornament and Crime

As in Loos’s earlier houses, the eye is directed toward the interior, which turns its back on the outside world; but the subject, and the object of the gaze has been reversed.”

Frantz Fanon, Wretch of the World

“The “native” sector is not complimentary to the European sector. The two confront each other, but not in the service of a
higher unity… The colonist’s sector is a sector built to last, all stone and steel.”

Abbot Suger, Book of suger

Thus sometimes when, because of my delight in the beauty of the house of God, the multicolor loveliness of the gems has
called me away from external cares, and worthy meditation, transporting me from material to immaterial things, has
persuaded me to examine the diversity of holy virtues, then I seem to see myself existing on some level, as it were, beyond our
earthly one, neither completely in the slime of earth nor completely in the purity of heaven. By the gift of God I can be
transported in an anagogical manner from this inferior level to that superior one.

Joseph Godlewski: textbook

Through exposure to a range of perspectives, students will be able to situate their own work within a diverse spectrum of
theories concerning architecture, urbanism, and space. This book intends to serve beginning students with an awareness of
this disciplinary knowledge from around the world.”

Vitruvius: Ten Books of Architecture

The architect should be equipped with knowledge of many branches of study and varied kinds of learning, for it is by his
judgement that all work done by the other arts is put to test.”

Kisho Kurokawa

“Ours was the first generation to be educated in the totally new post-war system. Indeed, for a period shortly after the end of
The war, most of the pages in our old textbooks were inked out because their contents were no longer considered suitable.”The
