" Let us now enjoy the deep joys awaiting those who are willing to explore the laws of nature and discover the spirit animating them.
We live in the presence of three spheres:
Our dictator: the sun.
The globe on which we live out our destinies: the earth.
And a companion forever whirling around us: the moon.
This single fact already sets limitations upon all our activities:The 365 days of a solar year, the inevitable track upon which our bodies, our hearts, our minds must move: a year, four seasons: the intense cold of winter: the tender hopes of springtime; the burning heat of summer; the melancholy twilight of the fall."
-Radiant City, Le Corbusier
