| Notes | Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, the author of several collections of Wright?s writings and Director of the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives, has culled more than two hundred quotations from a wide range of sources, drawing heavily on transcripts of the Sunday talks. The themes to which Wright returned most often serve as the book?s sections: the value of architecture takes precedence, but topics such as government and the getting of wisdom provide memorable and pungent comments. Wright was brash, outspoken, funny, irreverent, and unafraid of the most sweeping generalizations. In Frank Lloyd Wright on Architecture, Nature, and the Human Spirit, all those qualities shine, but so do the architect?s religious faith, his unswerving commitment to hard work, and a firm moral scheme that connected the two. |
