From the Mouldiness Manifesto against Rationalism in Architecture by Hundertwasser 👏
»In the so-called slums only the human body can be oppressed, but in our modern functional architecture, allegedly constructed for the human being, man's soul is perishing, oppressed.«

»The individual's desire to build something should not be deterred! Everyone should be able and have to build (...) And one must take the risk into the bargain that such a fantastic structure might collapse later, and one should not and must not shrink from human sacrifice which this new mode of building demands, perhaps demands. We must at last put a stop to having people move into their quarters like chickens and rabbits into their coops.«
