I really believed that I could do anything that I wished. And because I believed it… I did anything I wished.

Remembering Milton Glaser
The most significant things are not verbal, they’re not narrative. They’re something else. They are in the realm of feeling, expression, and art. It’s one of the reasons that the design profession is worthwhile. Every once in a while, you really get an opportunity to make things better than they were before.

Milton Glaser: Good life project
“When you do something that’s guaranteed to succeed, you’re closing the door to the possibility of discovery.” – Milton Glaser
The interval between looking and seeing is one of communication’s most profound issues. Designers often comment that in the act of creating what turns out to be their best work, they often experience a sense of doubt and confusion. How could it be otherwise? Certainty is a closing of the mind. To create the new, requires doubt. Or, to quote old man Picasso, “Art is a lie that reveals the truth.”
