And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Exactly. Frank Gehry was that type, thinking he’s a genius with crumpled up paper as inspiration. Imagine the cost to build that monstrosity (while the ‘nose in the air’ crowd act all proud of their new building).
Due to the unpredictability cost over runs are enormous on projects like this. I'm an architect and if such a project was presented to me I would charge 4 times the normal rate.
