More From Arthur Erickson

My passion has been to build an enduring company where people were motivated to make great products. everything else was secondary. sure, it was great to make a profit, because that was what allowed you to make great products. but the products, not the profits were the motivation.

On the rare occasions when our dreams succeed and achieve perfection - most dreams are bungled - the are symbolic chains of scene and images in place of a narrative poetic language; they circumscribe our experiences or expectations or situations with such poetic boldness and decisiveness that in the morning we are always amazed when we remember our dreams.

What i have learned about museum buildings is that buildings have to have iconic presentations. the position of the art museum vis-a-vis other civic buildings needs to be hierarchal in the community. it has to be equal to the library and the courthouse.

We should understand well that all things are the work of the great spirit. we should know the great spirit is within all things: the trees, the grasses, the rivers, the mountains, and the four-legged and winged peoples; and even more important, we should understand that the great spirit is also above all these things and peoples. when we do understand all this deeply in our hearts, then we will fear, and love, and know the great spirit, and then we will be and act and live as the spirit intends.

Poetic experience is distinct in nature from mystical experience. because poetry emanates from the free creativity of the spirit,it is from the very start oriented toward expression, and terminates in a word proffered, it wants to speak; whereas mystical because it emanates from the deepest longing of the spirit bent on knowing, tends of itself toward silence and internal fruition. poetic experience is busy with the created world and the enigmatic and innumerable relations of existents with one another, not with the principle of being.

I don't think all buildings have to be iconic, but the history of the world has shown us that cultures build iconic buildings for their major public buildings.

The timing of comedy is so difficult. you've got to leave room for a laugh, you don't want to kill the laugh, but on film, you can't just suddenly stop for a laugh and then carry on. so, i think it's a real art form, comedy on film.

History is made by masses of people. one man, or ten men, don't start the earthquakes and don't stop them either. only hero worshipers and ignorant historians think they do.
