6. "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 wor l d around us i s
something that somebody has
control of, perhaps they can feel
some sense of control, too. I think
that’s a nice ambition."

38. “Too much and too long, we seem to
have surrendered community excellence
and community values in the mere
accumulation of material things. 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

take off." - By NobodySpecial
