Parce qu'elle est dans un perpétuel devenir, sous l'effet de la succession infiniment changeante des êtres qui l'habitent et la font et referont, la ville ne se ramène nullement à son plan, schéma graphique, ni même à l'ensemble des creux et des pleins architecturaux qui la définissent. Ce plan, ces creux et ces pleins ne sont que les manifestations extérieures de l'existence d'un être collectif chez qui la vie est entretenue par la substitution des générations les unes aux autres. C'est la connaissance de cet être collectif qui importe avant tout. Or, tout le drame de l'urbanisme actuel consiste dans le divorce entre des formes urbaines, caduques et lourdes, et l'être urbain en prodigieux renouvellement. 3, record 1, French, - %C3%AAtre%20urbain
