 Part of our troubles results from the tendency to ascribe to architects — or, for that matter, to all specialists — exceptional insight into problems of living when, in truth, most of them are concerned with problems of business and prestige. Besides, the art of living is neither taught nor encouraged in this country. We look upon it as a form of debauch, little aware that its tenets are frugality, cleanliness, and a general respect for creation, not to mention Creation.

—Bernard Rudofsky, Architecture Without Architects, 1964
