A House Is A Machine

Our World, Like A Charnel-house, Is Strewn With The Detritus Of Dead Epochs.

To Be Modern Is Not A Fashion, It Is A State. It Is Necessary To Understand History, And He Who Understands History Knows How To Find Continuity Between That Which Was, That Which Is, And That Which Will Be.

Architecture Is The Masterly, Correct And Magnificent Play Of Masses Brought Together In Light. Our Eyes Are Made To See Forms In Light; Light And Shade Reveal These Forms; Cubes, Cones, Spheres, Cylinders Or Pyramids Are The Great Primary Forms Which Light Reveals To Advantage; The Image Of These Is Distinct And Tangible Within Us Without Ambiguity. It Is For This Reason That These Are Beautiful Forms, The Most Beautiful Forms. Everybody Is Agreed To That, The Child, The Savage And The Metaphysician.

Belgrade Is The Ugliest City In The World In The Most Beautiful Place In The World.

It Is A Question Of Building Which Is At The Root Of The Social Unrest Of Today: Architecture Or Revolution.
