“Now, not everything can make the world a slightly better place. But following your conscience to make something smart and good-looking, rather than dumb and ugly—depending on how you define those qualities—is a way to make the world slightly better.”—Michael Bierut on The Great Discontent (TGD) — thegreatdiscontent.com
A must read for any graphic designers from a modern-day design legend.

“When I worked for Massimo [Vignelli], one of the things I learned from him was that you can integrate design into your life. Design wasn’t just a job, or something on your drawing board or computer screen: it was a whole way of thinking about the world.”—Michael Bierut on The Great Discontent (TGD) — thegreatdiscontent.com

“For me, science fiction is above all a prospective form of narrative fiction; it is concerned with seeing the present in terms of the immediate future rather than the past.”—Extreme Metaphors by J.G Ballard, Simon Sellars, Dan O'Hara

“‘We tend to assume that people want to be together in a kind of renaissance city if you like, imaginatively speaking, strolling in the evening across a crowded piazza … [But people] want to be alone. They want to be alone and watch television.’”—Extreme Metaphors by J.G Ballard, Simon Sellars, Dan O'Hara

“Fling your arms wide in an expansive gesture to span all of evolution from its origin at your left fingertip to today at your right fingertip. All the way across your midline to well past your right shoulder, life consists of nothing but bacteria. Many-celled, invertebrate life flowers somewhere around your right elbow. The dinosaurs originate in the middle of your right palm, and go extinct around your last finger joint. The whole story of Homo sapiens and our predecessor Homo erectas is contained in the thickness of one nail-clipping. As for recorded history; as for the Sumerians, the Babylonians, the Jewish patriarchs, the dynasties of Pharaohs, the legions of Rome, the Christian Fathers, the Laws of the Medes and Persians which never change; as for Troy and the Greeks, Helen and Achilles and Agamemnon dead; as for Napoleon and Hitler, the Beatles and Bill Clinton, they and everyone that knew them are blown away in the dust from one light stroke of a nail-file.”—Unweaving the Rainbow: Science, Delusion and the Appetite for Wonder by Richard Dawkins

“At least a part of life should be devoted to living that life, not just working to stop it ending. This is how we rightly justify spending taxpayers’ money on the arts. It is one of the justifications properly offered for conserving rare species and beautiful buildings.”—Prof. Richard Dawkins
