"I don’t think that anyone has really told (people) what design is. It doesn’t occur to most people that everything is designed–that every building and everything they touch in the world is designed. Even foods are designed now. So in the process of helping people understand this, making them more aware of the fact that the world around us is something that somebody has control of, perhaps they can feel some sense of control, too. I think that’s a nice ambition." !–Bill Moggridge

Our gross national product...counts air pollution and cigarette advertising.” “Yet the gross national product does not allow for the health of our children, the quality of their education, or the joy of their play. It does not include the beauty of our poetry or the strength of our marriages… it measures everything, in short, except that which makes life worthwhile.” –Robert F. Kennedy

“How can you tell a good painting from a bad one?”... “All you have to do my dear,” he said, “is look at a million paintings, and then you can never be mistaken.” It's true! It's true! !
–Kurt Vonnegut
Then my father sat down beside him, put his arm around my brother’s shoulder and said, “Bird by bird, buddy. Just take it bird by bird.”
