I think one of the things that language poets are very involved with is getting away from conventional ideas of beauty because those ideas contain a certain attitude toward women certain attitudes toward sex certain attitudes toward race etc.

An attitude to life which seeks fulfillment in the single-minded pursuit of wealth - in short materialism - does not fit into this world because it contains within itself no limiting principle while the environment in which it is placed is strictly limited.

It's art that pushes against psychological and social expectations that tries to transform decay into something generative that is replicative in a baroque way that isn't about progress and wants to - as Walt Whitman put it - 'contain multitudes.'

A work of art that contains theories is like an object on which the price tag has been left.

All architecture is shelter all great architecture is the design of space that contains cuddles exalts or stimulates the persons in that space.

Space has always been the spiritual dimension of architecture. It is not the physical statement of the structure so much as what it contains that moves us.

Architecture is basically a container of something. I hope they will enjoy not so much the teacup but the tea.

Love is not weakness. It is strong. Only the sacrament of marriage can contain it.

I use the music to vent and a lot of the stuff that I am writing about or was writing about contained a lot of anger and anxiety stress and depression so that's how the album came out so dark.

The best of artists has no conception that the marble alone does not contain within itself.
