    • Quotes

      Bruce Graham: Mies began to influence developers, who in fact have built America. It is those people who were sympathetic to simplistic buildings- buildings that were very hard and had very little wastage. He did not pretend to solve all problems. He was simply working on a particular language of discovery, searching for the symbols of our times, the psyche of our time, and beginning to draw that language which would be elaborated on by others.
