Quotable Quotes

I'm on a quotation kick lately - I love apt quotations! - and I came across this gem from architect Tadao Ando, which exactly expresses what I was thinking about in an earlier post about the importance of sketching for architects (or any other visual artist):

“My hand is the extension of the thinking process - the creative process.” 

Exactly!  Tadao Ando, by the way, is the architect of Fort Worth's Modern Art Museum, next door neighbor to Louis Kahn's masterpiece, the Kimbell Art Museum.  Take a field trip!
