“Be humble and to be available to listen, to learn in every stage of life. The key word to approach the green building movement, is foundations, not only in the way of thinking, a way of doing, but to go to foundation. You have to make a habit, to learn and to compare all the phases and to deepen every question, every issue. I prefer to have received my career with this way of thinking, a way of making the disposition to learn from people and from every kind of people, because everyone has something to teach us.”
