Ludwig Mies van der Rohe : (4) " I think that an industrial process is not like a rubber stamp. Everything has to be put together and, as such, should have its own expression. " - Ludwig Mies van der Rohe " Cheese was the staple. Bread you brought from home. The Schnaps came later. At the end of the week when people got paid, that’s when you got your Schnaps, lots of it, five Pfennige a shot. " - Ludwig Mies van der Rohe " If there really is no new way to be found, we are not afraid to stick with the old one that we found previously. So, I do not make every building different. " - Ludwig Mies van der Rohe " The tendency of our time is wholly oriented toward the secular. The efforts of the mystics will remain episodes. Despite a deepening of our conceptions of life, we will build no cathedrals. " - Ludwig Mies van der Rohe
