Speaking to people in all parts of the country, it has become clear to me that there is a definite appetite for the option to reject Theresa May's Brexit and hold a referendum.

Andrew Adonis, Baron Adonis

If there is a well thought-out design standard, it should be followed. In practice, great design comes from great designers. That is empirically the case. If a great designer did a first-rate standard, that model should be followed. Great design is not democratic; it comes from great designers. If the standard is lousy, then develop another standard.

Edward Tufte

They are born, put in a box; they go home to live in a box; they study by ticking boxes; they go to what is called "work" in a box, where they sit in their cubicle box; they drive to the grocery store in a box to buy food in a box; they talk about thinking "outside the box"; and when they die they are put in a box.

Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Reject labels. Reject identities. Reject conformity. Reject convention. Reject definitions. Reject names.

Ming-Dao Deng

Because it is a national landmark, there is only one way to judge the Kennedy Center - against the established standard of progressive and innovative excellence in architectural design that this country is known and admired for internationally. Unfortunately, the Kennedy Center not only does not achieve this standard of innovative excellence; it also did not seek it. The architect opted for something ambiguously called 'timelessness' and produced meaninglessness. It is to the Washington manner born. Too bad, since there is so much of it.

Ada Louise Huxtable

I love capitalism. It rewards me for being brave - it awards me for being innovative and thinking out of the box.

Henry Rollins

Designers must be both conscious and unconscious at the same time. Clear thinking at the wrong moment can stifle talent.

Karl Lagerfeld

Great design is not democratic; it comes from great designers. If the standard is lousy, then develop another standard.

Edward Tufte

To me thinking outside the box means; crossing disciplines and pulling in expertise and perspective from outside of the standard boundaries.

Dror Benshetrit

Consciously cultivate the ordinary.

Walker Percy

I've never lost my appetite for acting; it's innovative and challenging.

Eli Wallach

Will African-Americans break away from the pack thinking and reject immorality-- because that's the reason the family's breaking apart--alcohol, drugs, infidelity. You have to reject that, and it doesn't seem--and I'm broadly speaking here, but a lot of African-Americans won't reject it

Bill O'Reilly

To do something innovative means that you reject reason.

Jonathan Ive

I got a standard box. I don't never want nothing special. Then if I drop my box, I can borrow somebody else's.

Wes Montgomery

I like the fact that I like to think out-of-the-box. Thinking out-of-the-box goes along with dressing out-of-the-box and living out-of-the-box. If you want to come up with a really original design idea and you want to capture a whole new design direction, perhaps the best way to arrive at that is not by acting and thinking and doing like everybody else. That's all.

Peter Marino

Most people make the mistake of thinking design is what it looks like. People think it's this veneer - that the designers are handed this box and told, 'Make it look good!' That's not what we think design is. It's not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.

Steve Jobs
