writing giving people
We need to give out portrayal of ourselves. Every non-Indian writer writes about 1860 to 1890 pretty much, and there is no non-Indian writer that can write movies about contemporary Indians.

They're not used as people, they're used as points. Chris Eyre

names voice apples
I am troubled by the devaluing of the word 'design’. I find myself now being somewhat embarrassed to be called a designer. In fact I prefer the German term, Gestalt-Ingenieur.

Ever fewer people appear to understand that design is a serious profession; and for our future welfare we need more companies to take that profession seriously. Dieter Rams
