Oscar Niemeyer // “When the world becomes a better place, what will happen? Residences will become simpler, not divided between slums and palaces…the theaters, museums and stadiums will be even bigger because everyone will be able to afford them. Because the poor can’t use anything…they only know architecture from a distance. At least what I build they can enjoy by looking at it because it’s surprising, it’s different…but they can’t participate in anything. So, an architect has to be interested in political issues….just like any citizen.”
