I've been looking at the iPod- the Apple iPod. One of the interesting things about the iPod, one of the things that people love most about it is not the technology; it's the box it comes in.

To me, error analysis is the sweet spot for improvement.

Everyday people are not very good designers.

Beauty and brains, pleasure and usability - they should go hand in hand.

User-centered design means working with your users all throughout the project.

Market segmentation s a natural result of the vast differences among people.

Sure, one can always get the students to relax and be happy - entertained, but although being laid back and relax can also lead to creativity, mostly it means that nothing much gets done.

Our information lives will be better served when we are free to get to our information from wherever we are, with any device available.

I believe that the Apple Shuffle is an excellent compromise among the conflicting requirements of simplicity, elegance, size, battery life, and function.

And to get real work experience, you need a job, and most jobs will require you to have had either real work experience or a graduate degree.

AS for all those mistakes I make - they are on purpose - to teach you how to deal with them.

Knowing how people will use something is essential.

Readers always seem to think that the author has some control over the design of their books.

You won't catch me giving clear lectures.

If you think the products don't match what you want from a product, don't buy it.

A big ethical question is what happens after people stop using the device. Does it degrade the environment? Could it have been designed so it would actually be good for the environment?

The problem with emotion was that it was clearly something important, but-at least according to the old philosophy-it was something to overcome.

Scientists are always skeptics.

I think there is a tendency in science to measure what is measurable and to decide that what you cannot measure must be uninteresting.

It is relatively easy to design for the perfect cases, when everything goes right, or when all the information required is available in proper format.

Isn't one of your first exercises in learning how to communicate to write a description of how to tie your shoelaces? The point being that it's basically impossible to use text to show that.

In my opinion, no single design is apt to be optimal for everyone.

Am I an Apple bigot? No. I can critique their products and their customer service philosophy. But overall, they do better than any other player.

We expert teachers know that motivation and emotional impact are what matter.

So what does a good teacher do? Create tension - but just the right amount.

Also note that invariably when we design something that can be used by those with disabilities, we often make it better for everyone.

I believe that robots should only have faces if they truly need them.

I prefer design by experts - by people who know what they are doing.

As for all those mistakes I make - they are on purpose - to teach you how to deal with them.

Academics get paid for being clever, not for being right.

We assume that celebrities have it easy and so love to watch them having to endure a bit of hardship.

I love Nautilus and stretching. The results are immediate, and that gives me the motivation to continue.

I am a ordinary teenager. I fall in love like everyone else.

I don't call you handsome, sir, though I love you most dearly: far too dearly to flatter you. Don't flatter me.

The essential elements of giving are power and love - activity and affection - and the consciousness of the race testifies that in the high and appropriate exercise of these is a blessedness greater than any other.

My mother keeps things in perspective for me. She makes me realize that the acting I do and love is no more important than what one of my brothers does-he works in a shoe repair shop. If my career ever tapers off, I'll go to college.

Actors love mental disorders, dialects, and corsets. Give them one of the three and they're happy.

My goal is, of course, for this show to do well, and I would love it if people liked it.

I love living on that stage. Without that, I'd die.

I love my DSL, but I love my WiFi more. And I probably get on the Internet 40 percent to 50 percent more because of the combination of those technologies.

But I love New York. I used to set my alarm clock when I was there, and get up at 4am and get a coffee, just because I could.

I love children and I love men, but I can't commit to either for the rest of my life.

Sitting at home the way I do, I'd just love the hear from people. It'd be a great help in passing the time.

The wise are wise only because they love. The fool are fools only because they think they can understand love.

We can recognize the dawn and the decline of love by the uneasiness we feel when alone together.

Love is a mutual self-giving which ends in self-recovery.

People react to fear, not love; they don't teach that in Sunday School, but it's true.

I sort of understood that when I first started: that you shouldn't repeat a success. Very often you're going to, and maybe the first time you do, it works. And you love it. But then you're trapped.
