Meditations

Don’t make something unless it is both necessary and useful; but if it is both necessary and useful, don’t hesitate to make it beautiful.
—Design House Stockholm
Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted.
—William Bruce Cameron
A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.
—Ayn Rand
Design should never say, ‘Look at me.’ It should always say, ‘Look at this.'
—David Craib
Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.
—Steve Jobs
It’s art if can’t be explained. It’s fashion if no one asks for an explanation. It’s design if it doesn’t need explanation.
—Wouter Stokkel
Always design a thing by considering it in its next larger context – a chair in a room, a room in a house, a house in an environment, an environment in a city plan.
—Eliel Saarinen
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge.
—Charles Darwin
It might be easier / To fail with land in sight / Than gain my blue peninsula / To perish of delight
—Emily Dickinson
It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can only do little.
—Sydney Smith
Every man’s work, whether it be literature or music or pictures or architecture… is always a portrait of himself.
—Samuel Butler
It’s hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don’t know what they want until you show it to them.
—Steve Jobs
