"To design the future effectively, you must first let go of your past." ― Charles J. Givens Topic(s): Design More In Design "The design of the Mac wasn’t what it looked like, although that was part of it. Primarily, it was how it worked. To design something really well, you have to get it. You have to really grok what it’s all about. It takes a passionate commitment to really thoroughly understand something, chew it up, not just quickly swallow it."― Steve Jobs "It is only after years of preparation that the young artist should touch color – not color used descriptively, that is, but as a means of personal expression."― Henri Matisse "I come from an Italian family. One of the greatest and most profound expressions we would ever use in conversations or arguments was a slamming door. The slamming door was our punctuation mark."― Mario Batali
