The Difference between Construction and Creation

“You can dream, create, design, and build the most beautiful house in the world. But it requires people to make that dream a reality and turn a house into a Home.”

“A great building must begin with the immeasurable, must go through measurable means when it is being designed, and in the end must be unmeasured.”

“Each of us is carving a stone, erecting a column, or cutting a piece of stained glass in the construction of something much bigger than ourselves.”

“Good buildings come from good people, and all problems are solved by good design.”

“A world which sees art and engineering as divided is not seeing the world as a whole.”

You can use an eraser on the drafting table or a sledgehammer on the construction site.”

“Use the best possible materials, and reveal the quality of those materials and the craftsmanship of their assembly.”

“The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists.”
