“Curiosity is natural to the soul of man and interesting objects have a powerful influence on our affections. Let these influencing powers actuate, by the permission or disposal of Providence, from selfish or social views, yet in time the mysterious will of Heaven is unfolded, and we behold our conduct, from whatever motives excited, operating to answer the important designs of heaven.” MenImportantSoulHeavenSocialNaturalAnswersInterestingViewsPowerfulInfluenceDesignObjectsCuriosityAffectionExcitedSelfishMysteriousMotiveProvidencePermission Author:Daniel Boone

“When you're designing and inventing the way I did, every minute of your life is put - every neuron in your brain into trying to think about the little code and how you can maybe have one less line of code and a little bit more straightforward from the beginning to the answer. And you don't have time to think about companies and products and how would I build this. So Steve Jobs and I were a very necessary pair.” ThinkingWayTryingLittlesJobsLife IsBitsLinesAnswersBrainCompanyMinutesDesignProductsLittle BitCodePairsStraightforwardInventingTime To ThinkNeurons Author:Steve Wozniak
“The director makes the movie. The director has to have the story in their head, has to know the style of the piece, has to answer questions from actors, design, set, lighting, every department throughout the pre-production, production, and post-production, because they've got it in their mind. They've got to know exactly what they want and what the style and story of the movie is. It's them.

“Science tries to answer the question: "How?" How do cells act in the body? How do you design an airplane that will fly faster thansound? How is a molecule of insulin constructed? Religion, by contrast, tries to answer the question: "Why?" Why was man created? Why ought I to tell the truth? Why must there be sorrow or pain or death? Science attempts to analyze how things and people and animals behave; it has no concern whether this behavior is good or bad, is purposeful or not. But religion is precisely the quest for such answers: whether an act is right or wrong, good or bad, and why.” PeopleMenTryingBodyPainScienceReligionAnswersAnimalDesignOughtSorrowBehaviorConcernCellsFasterBehaveTelling The TruthContrastAirplaneQuestsMoleculesInsulin Author:Warren Weaver

“I wanted to feel good about the way I looked. I didn't understand why style had to be sacrificed for sports technology. I found when going to the gym women were wearing their own tees, without the technology. I started to think, does it make you run faster if you wear that terrible color or sweat less if you wear that horrible fabric? And I challenged it, and the answers were not there to why we were being given poor design work. It was something I wanted to bring to women's wardrobes.” IfsThinkingWayFeelsDoeRunningWantedFoundGivenSportsAnswersPoorTechnologyStyleDesignColorTerribleHorribleFeel GoodFasterWorking ItGymSweatFabricWardrobeTeesDesign Work Author:Stella McCartney
