The room is there for the human being - not the human being for the room.

El Lissitzky Artist

Typographical design should perform optically what the speaker creates through voice and gesture of his thoughts.

El Lissitzky Artist

The purpose of architecture is to transmute the emptiness into space, that is into something which our minds can grasp as an organized unity.

El Lissitzky Artist

We believe that the elements in the chemical formula of our creative work, problem, invention, and art, correspond to the challenges of our age.

El Lissitzky Artist

Mere human beings cant afford to be fanatical about anything. Not even about justice or loyalty. The fanatic for justice ends by murdering a million helpless people to clear a space for his law-courts. If we are to survive on this planet, there must be compromises.

Storm Jameson Journalist

Ambient means the natural center or atmosphere of a space. All music has that in it- a space or center. I think it just means the atmosphere or what defines the environment of sound and maybe removing the more destructive, harsh elements and harder rhythmic elements and you get down to the stillness that's inherent. There's an ambient quality in every sound. You may have to enhance that to hear it or bring it out in a different way but there is that in every environmental sound.

Bill Laswell Bassist

It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Carl Sagan Astronomer

Each of us has a God-shaped space within us. Only God can fill that space. But we run ourselves ragged trying to find things other than God to fill it with.

Desmond Tutu Activist

Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

Viktor E. Frankl M.D.

The material of typography is the black, and it is the designer’s task with the help of this black to capture space, to create harmonious whites inside the letters as well as between them.

Adrian Frutiger Typeface Creator
