Terrence Conran (Conran Directory of Design): “Everything that man makes is designed, but not everything is well designed. Good design only comes about when things are made with attention both to their functional and their aesthetic qualities.…good design starts from the premise that living is more than just a matter of existing, and that everyday things which are both effective and attractive can raise the quality of life.”

Jean Anouilh: “God is on everyone’s side…And, in the final analysis, he is on the side of those who have plenty of money and large armies.”

Karl Gerstner: “Henceforth, I was guided by the principle of making everyday things like works of art and works of art like everyday things.”
