A few years ago, I visited Chicago with my wife and we did the architecture tour by boat. Obviously Frank Lloyd Wright was a feature of the tour since he designed many of the buildings that we were looking at.
According to the guide, FLW was once cited to give evidence in court. After being sworn in, he was asked by the attorney who was leading him in evidence to state his full name.
”Frank Lloyd Wright”, he replied.
”And what is your occupation?”
“I am the world’s greatest architect”
At this point the judge interjected,
”Is that not a little immodest, Mr Wright?”
”Well, I swore to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth!”
