The courtyard in our type of house which I took a fancy to in my experience living on the Las Flores and the Santa Margarita ranches and visiting the Estudillo house and others, and being in those types of houses, I just inherently realized how much better the living was than in the typical house. So we keep making progress, but the ranch house has outlived them all. - 1983 from an interview by Marlene L. Laskey1936
