The meeting on Monday quoted Monday "The structure is a very dangerous crutch that grasp. You can come to believe that a clearly structured architecture will ultimately be clearly expressed itself. You can say, 'I have to design anything else. I have only to determine a clear structural order '. I myself have thought this from time to time. It's a nice crutch, you know, because you can not ruin a building too if all are equal and the spaces between the windows of the same size. "
