00:00To make architecture is to make war.

00:06The only difference is that in architecture, there is no victory.

00:11Victory should satisfy you, but buildings rarely do.

00:16I've never been satisfied with what I've built.

00:21You can't fight a war on your own.

00:27You can't build a building on your own.

00:31So I demand psychological and physical strength from each member of my team.

00:37And I demand the same thing of myself.
