Everything Is Design. Everything!

Pictures, Abstract Symbols, Materials, And Colors Are Among The Ingredients With Which A Designer Or Engineer Works. To Design Is To Discover Relationships And To Make Arrangements And Rearrangements Among These Ingredients.

Any System That Sees Aesthetics As Irrelevant, That Separates The Artist From His Product, That Fragments The Work Of The Individual, Or Creates By Committee, Or Makes Mincemeat Of The Creative Process Will, In The Long Run, Diminish Not Only The Product But The Maker As Well.

The Reason I Always Insisted On Signing My Work Was Not To Be Subordinate To Anyone.

The Artist Is A Collector Of Things Imaginary Or Real. He Accumulates Things With The Same Enthusiasm That A Little Boy Stuffs His Pockets. The Scrap Heap And The Museum Are Embraced With Equal Curiosity. He Takes Snapshots, Makes Notes And Records Impressions On Tablecloths Or Newspapers, On Backs Of Envelopes Or Matchbooks. Why One Thing And Not Another Is Part Of The Mystery, But He Is Omnivorous.

Don't Try To Be Original; Just Try To Be Good.
