"The ruins look lovely."
"So why worry? The Opera House becomes a ruin one day."
- Jorn Utzon
something inspirational
blah blah etc.
I was all inspired before but then I decided to study instead of journal and now I'm sick of writing :P haha
maybe another day.
The quote is still nice though.
Sydney Opera house by the way, and the quote was said by Jorn Utzon (original architect) to the architect who was finishing his building (against Utzon's original proposal and against his scheme) after Utzon was sacked/resigned from the project. He was looking at some Mayan ruins I believe.

There's a project kind of rumbling about to get him to "finish" the Opera house with his design (for the interior). I'm not entirely sure that they should - even though it's a real pity he left the project, the Opera House is iconic for what it is today, and Walter Burly Griffin & Marion Mahoney are pretty important architects as well. But on the other hand, it would be fairly cool for Utzon to come back and finish the project.
