Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness.

我们不要害怕犯错，因为只有通过犯错我们才能学习和进步。

在布基纳法索，我们有句谚语："一棵树需要时间生长。"好的建筑也需要时间。

我不是来讨人喜欢的，我是来做自己的。

I don’t think you should ever feel like you’ve achieved everything. You always have to keep pushing.

翻译：过去善于打仗的将领，首先做到自己不被敌人战胜，再等待时机战胜敌人。不被敌人战胜取决于自己做好准备、不犯错，是否能战胜敌人取决于敌人是否犯错。

"History is not just about events, but about the people who lived through them."
