Arne Jacobsen

“I am going to be working on bathroom fittings for a company in the USA, and then I thought it was appropriate to simplify the fittings and, thus, lowering the cost.”

“Architecture tends to consume everything else, it has become one's entire life.”

“With a painter or a sculptor, one cannot begin to alter his works, but an architect has to put up with anything, because he makes utility objects - the building is there to be used, and times change.”

“When I travel, I draw and paint sketches which is great fun. And as long as you are fully aware that it has nothing to do with actual art, I think that's all right.”

“There is always a point when one senses one's lack of skill, the doubt.”

“Almost every time I make a building, some people will condemn it straight to Hell.”
