The way anything is developed is through practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice and more practice.

Architecture is art. i don't think you should say that too much, but it is art. i mean, architecture is many, many things. architecture is science, is technology, is geography, is typography, is anthropology, is sociology, is art, is history. you know all this comes together. architecture is a kind of bouillabaisse, an incredible bouillabaisse. and, by the way, architecture is also a very polluted art in the sense that it's polluted by life, and by the complexity of things.
Art Mean Technology

I'm not a prophet, but i always thought it was natural for dictatorships to fall. i remember in 1989, two months before the fall of the berlin wall, had you said it was going to happen no one would have believed you. the system seemed powerful and unbreakable. suddenly overnight it blew away like dust.
Wall Powerful Fall
...if the fear of falling into error is the source of a mistrust in science, which in the absence of any such misgivings gets on with the work itself and actually does know, it is difficult to see why, conversely, a mistrust should not be placed in this mistrust, and why we should not be concerned that this fear of erring is itself the very error.
Fear Fall Errors
