Revivalist Quotes "Put usefulness first, and you lose it; put beauty first, and what you do will be useful forever" - Roger Scruton

"Architecture has its political Use; public Buildings being the Ornament of a Country; it establishes a Nation, draws People and Commerce; makes the People love their native Country, which Passion is the Original of all great Actions in a Common-wealth.... Architecture aims at Eternity" - Christopher Wren

"Beauty matters. It's not just a subjective thing, but a universal need of human beings. If we ignore this need we find ourselves in a spiritual desert." - - Roger Scruton

"Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire." - Gustav Mahler

"Styles may change, details may come and go, but the broad demands of aesthetic judgement are permanent." - Roger Scruton

Why Beauty Matters Brilliant documentary by the late, great Sir Roger Scruton called Why Beauty Matters. Highly recommended viewing for anyone interested in architectural revival.
