Quotes by Robert Adam  (?)

“For architects, towns and cities are just big display cases for their work. The fact that the place matters so much more than the building is something else they don't want to know. Making good cities is the last thing on their mind. As the heroic urbanist Jane Jacobs was heard to say, "the most cunningly ignorant people I know are architects.”
Robert Adam, The 7 Sins of Architects by Robert Adam
