????我在柯柏聯(lián)盟學院（Cooper Union school）的第一年是打基礎的一年。那以后，你可以成為一名藝術家，也可以成為一名建筑師。我記得，當時我和母親坐在紐約布朗克斯區(qū)的住宅區(qū)里說：“我覺得我不想成為一名建筑師。我要搞藝術，因為它更享受。她在一間血汗工廠里工作。她告訴我：“如果你當一名藝術家，將來就會過苦日子。你應當做一名建筑師，你可以成為建筑界的藝術家，但你不能成為藝術界的建筑師。”

Master plan architect for reconstruction of World Trade Center site

????My first year at the Cooper Union school in New York was a foundational year. After that, you can either be an artist or an architect. I remember sitting with my mother in the Bronx in our housing complex and saying, "I don't think I'm going to do architecture. I'm going to do art because it's more enjoyable." She worked in the sweatshops. She said to me, "If you're going to be an artist, you're going to be poor. You should be an architect because you can always be an artist in architecture, but you cannot be an architect in art."
