La Fl%c3%a8che/urban Environment and Green Spaces

Famous quotes containing the words urban, environment, green and/or spaces:

    The city is a fact in nature, like a cave, a run of mackerel or an ant-heap. But it is also a conscious work of art, and it holds within its communal framework many simpler and more personal forms of art. Mind takes form in the city; and in turn, urban forms condition mind.
    Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)

    Today the young actors regard their environment with rage and disgust. They regard their Master not as disciples regard their Master, but as slaves regard their Master.
    Judith Malina (b. 1926)

    Never stay up on the barren heights of cleverness, but come down into the green valleys of silliness.
    Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

    Deep down, the US, with its space, its technological refinement, its bluff good conscience, even in those spaces which it opens up for simulation, is the only remaining primitive society.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
