This is from the Mike Wallace Interview 9/28/1957. It is a straight-through clip that starts somewhere in the middle of the interview. The whole interview, plus the 9/1/1957 interview, can be viewed at: http://www.hrc.utexas.edu/multimedia/video/2008/wallace/wright_frank_lloyd.html "I know of nothing more silly than to expect government to solve our advanced problems for us. If we have no ideas, how can government have any? That is a sensible question to ask, and the answer is that government as a majority affair can never have any."-FLW "Our biggest machine became not the corporations of big industry, but incorporated government, and biggest of all, the machinery of education." -FLW "Our natures are now so warped in many directions. We are so conditioned by education, we have no longer any straight, true, clean reactions that we can trust; and we have to be pretty wise and careful what it is we give up to, what is is we admire, what it is we're inspired by. I dare say that all these things may be good so far as they go because they are necessary; but I wouldn't say that they're what should be. I wouldn't say that they're ideal." - Frank Lloyd Wright
