“Some men give up their designs when they have almost reached the goal; While others, on the contrary, obtain a victory by exerting, at the last moment, more vigorous efforts than ever before.”

“I have too much product, and I'm trying to rein it in and sell more of my main collection. I wish you didn't have to design so often; it would be good if you could keep on selling the same things for a few years and not have to do new things all the time.”

“The point is that I don't design stuff for myself. I'm a toolmaker. I design things that other people want to use.”

“I was actually a communications major and had never done design.”

“I'd like to design something like a city or a museum. I want to do something hands on rather than just play golf which is the sport of the religious right.”

“The first 10 years of my professional life had only to do with running away from my father.

I tried to escape by going to art school and then going on to industrial design and then interior design.”

“Decisions are the frequent fabric of our daily design.”

“A person should design the way he makes a living around how he wishes to make a life.”
