“Close to the western summit there is the dried

 and frozen carcass of a leopard. No one has explained

 what the leopard was seeking at that altitude.”

“I ordered another rum St. James and I watched the

 girl whenever I looked up, or when I sharpened

 the pencil with a pencil sharpener with the shavings

 curling into the saucer under my drink.”

“On this circle the old man could see the fish's eye...”

  Hemingway illumes Santiago's character through

“The design of the roof derives from

 the metaphor of a violin, crushed along

 its center by the Tube above it.”

 text on Rem Koolhaas designed IIT

“It's crucial to Koolhaas's concept of a wall

 of  ‘Miesian interference’ that wraps around

 the facade and faces off against Crown Hall.

 The black Mies used to paint his steel reflects

 the qualities of his buildings -elegant, strong,

 and protecting, but also mysterious and

 forbidding. Orange is seen almost as its opposite

 -happy, warm, generous, and invigorating, but

 also overbearing and superficial.”

“In the middle of everything is a large

 glass ‘hanging garden’ that's open

 to the sky but completely sealed off

 from the rest of the center.”

 Layout for Oedipus Rem, Lynn Becker's

 text on Rem Koolhaas designed IIT

 McCormick Tribune Campus Center

“Koolhaas's engagement with Mies is apparent

 the moment you walk in the door, because

 Mies is in the door -an 18 foot high portrait of

 him is sandwiched between the panes of

 glass, so that you walk into the building through

 his head.”
