“Most people build as they live - as a matter of routine and senseless accident. But a few understand that building is a great symbol. We live in our minds, and existence is the attempt to bring that life into physical reality, to state it in gesture and form. For the man who understands this, a house he owns is a statement of his life. If he doesn’t build when he has the means, it’s because his life has not been what he wanted.“
— Howard Roark, from the Fountainhead - which I’m embarrassed to say I reread this summer.  It had been since highschool.
