I know what the attitudes of the readers are: These are guys who love women and respect women.
The purpose of architecture is to create an atmosphere in which man can live, work, and enjoy.
I have been criticized rather strenuously by painters and sculptors for not incorporating their work in our buildings.

I can't do everything obviously although sometimes I know that all of us wish that we could
I feel this way about it. World trade means world peace and consequently the World Trade Center buildings in New York. . . had a bigger purpose than just to provide room for tenants. The World Trade Center is a living symbol of man's dedication to world peace. . . beyond the compelling need to make this a monument to world peace, the World Trade Center should, because of its importance, become a representation of man's belief in humanity, his need for individual dignity, his beliefs in the cooperation of men, and through cooperation, his ability to find greatness.

Conscious means "having an awareness of one's inner and outer worlds; mentally perceptive, awake, mindful. " So "conscious business" might mean, engaging in an occupation, work, or trade in a mindful, awake fashion. This implies, of course, that many people do not do so. In my experience, that is often the case. So I would definitely be in favor of conscious business; or conscious anything, for that matter.
