Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that obtaineth understanding.
For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold

The Weizmann House was designed by Erich Mendelsohn, built in 1936 and renovated in 1975 by Vivian Clore Duffield in honor of her father Sir Charles Clore
for his seventieth birthday, which fell on December 26, 1974.
