“In fifty years, 1855-1905, Mormons built 730 cities, towns & villages, without any money and they were all broke, all refugees. Many of them went across the desert with wheelbarrows. These towns are now per capita the most successful in the United States. Absolute top.” —A.Duany

“They set out the lots on a map, and cut it into little chits, placed in a bowl. Each family of the pioneers pulled one of these chits out of the bowl, that was their deed. Just imagine the efficiency of this.” — Andres Duany

“They did this without financial finagling. Not one of these towns failed. Not one ghost town. Brigham Young is the Henry Ford of urbanism.”
— Andres Duany
