“And as soon as any object exhibits sufficient cognitive function, those instincts kick in and we react as though we were interacting with another sentient human being.”

There’s only one thing you can use against pure logic, and that’s common sense.

If you are not going to produce albums then you are not going to produce new fans. It’s impossible.

I’m a huge believer in putting music out as quickly as early as possible.

It’s harder than you might think to squander millions of dollars, but a flawed software development process is a tool well suited to the job.

Keep it simple: In general, interfaces should use simple geometric forms, minimal contours, and a restricted color palette comprised primarily of less-saturated or neutral colors balanced with a few high contrast accent colors that emphasize important information.

We don’t fight about music. We don’t fight about artistic direction.

Form follows function straight to hell.

A powerful tool in the early stages of developing scenarios is to pretend the interface is magic.

We seem to be keeping old fans and are bringing on new fans that are teenagers. I think that is amazing.

My computer’s memory stores a million phone numbers with perfect accuracy, but I have to stop and think to recall my own.

No matter how beautiful, no matter how cool your interface, it would be better if there were less of it.

Design principle: Take things away until the design breaks, then put that last thing back in.

If your persona has goals and the product has magical powers to meet them, how simple could the interaction be? This kind of thinking is useful to help designers look outside the box.

Just how do I design if not with prototyping? An excellent question. The short answer is ‘on paper.’

Typography should not vary widely in an interface.

Ironically, the thing that will likely make the least improvement in the ease of use of software-based products is new technology.

He nuzzles my neck affectionately. “i love you. I’m happier right now than i ever remember being.

Aziz winked at him slowly and said: “…There are many ways of being a man; mine is to express what is deepest in my heart.

Being body positive is really important to your overall happiness.

I am who I am, and I’m focused on that, and being a great CEO of Apple.

The secret to modeling is not being perfect. What one needs is a face that people can identify in a second. You have to be given what’s needed by nature, and what’s needed is to bring something new.

Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being.

I can’t begin to describe the amount of crap I’ve taken for being a lousy free-throw shooter.

They are gifted with the powers of being mothers, but not nursing mothers. Nature gives them bosoms for show, but not for use. So Lady Arabella had a wet-nurse.
