So I went for engineering, specifically product design, which I enjoyed. Debi Thomas
When I started this project, I was a young architect. I was very apprehensive about any changes to the design. Whether I wanted to or not, I learned that you can accept some changes to its form without compromising its intent. But it's a leap of faith that I didn't want to make initially - to put it mildly. Michael Arad
For two years nobody talked about anything other than the name arrangement. There was no fund-raising and no progress being made on construction and design. Michael Arad
How do you design it so that people can form a space of their own, and feel quiet and contemplative? Michael Arad
I really appreciate artists of the 20th century, and I can see a lot of their influence on my work, but to suggest that my design only fits within an 'ism' kind of bothers me. Michael Arad
I used to design for my body, which was flat-chested with big hips. That's why my clothes were tight on top with full skirts. Betsey Johnson
We have no general conceptual thrust for the band, other than trying to make music that keeps our interest. When things are novel, they are probably things we have discovered by accident or investigation rather than by design. Steve Albini
Initially, it was the unpractical in fashion that brought me to design my own line. I felt that it was much more attractive to cut clothes with respect for the living, three-dimensional body rather than to cover the body with decorative ideas. Jil Sander
I think there is always a need for pure design. With pure design, you don't need so much decoration. Jil Sander
It may sound ambitious, but I really hope that modern design will spread all around the globe. Jil Sander
Everyone by now presumably knows about the danger of premature optimization. I think we should be just as worried about premature design - designing too early what a program should do. Paul Graham
I had been impressed by the fact that biological systems were based on molecular machines and that we were learning to design and build these sorts of things. K. Eric Drexler
Punk's influence on music, movies, art, design and fashion is no longer in doubt. It is used as the measurement for what is cool. Malcolm Mclaren
Through all aspects of society be it art, design, the financial markets, government, technology or communications we are witnessing unprecedented global transformation - the result of which is impossible to predict. Malcolm Mclaren
So the premise of 'The Submission' is that there's an anonymous competition to design a 9/11 memorial and it's won by an American Muslim, an architect born and raised in Virginia, and his name is Mohammad Khan. Amy Waldman
I have had this view of the optimization of the electrode design for a long time. Historically we went through various phases in the work and eventually worked on large sheets - very large sheets - of palladium. Martin Fleischmann
If there is a gay uniform, the differences are in how each man coordinates the details: the brand and cut of the jeans, the design of belts and boots, the haircut, the number and size of earrings. Lance Loud
Wherever there is a design that is highly successful in a broad range of similar environments, it is apt to emerge again and again, independently - the phenomenon known in biology as convergent evolution. I call these designs 'good tricks.' Daniel Dennett
There is a group of individuals who are radical jihadists. We need to call them by name. They believe it is OK to kill people in the name of their religion. It is not all of Islam. It is not all Muslims. But there is a subgroup who believe it is OK. In fact, it is their plan and design to kill people. Tim Pawlenty
And I think my sexuality was heavily repressed by the church, by the, you know, the design of the mortal sins. Thomas Keneally
