May I say, finally, that I have no illusions of grandeur; quite to the contrary, I am very humble in my knowledge that through forty years of my life my life has been an open book of service to my fellow architects and for the public good.

  • -- Ralph Thomas Walker 拉尔夫·托马斯·沃克

最后，我想说，我对伟大没有幻想;恰恰相反，我非常谦虚地认识到，在我四十年的生活中，我的生活是一本公开的书，服务于我的建筑师同行和公共利益。

The real risks for any artist are taken in pushing the work to the limits of what is possible, in the attempt to increase the sum of what it is possible to think. Books become good when they go to this edge and risk falling over it when they endanger the artist by reason of what he has, or has not, artistically dared.

对任何艺术家来说，真正的风险在于将作品推向可能的极限，试图增加思考可能的总和。当书走到这条边缘时，就会变得很好;当书因为艺术家在艺术上的大胆而危及到他时，就会有掉下去的危险。
