A Quote by Philippe Starck

Everything I have designed is absolutely unnecessary. — © Philippe Starck
Everything I have designed is absolutely unnecessary.
A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts.
Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts.
Designers take care of everything around us. Everything that is around us, this table, this chair, this lamp, this pen has been designed. All of these things, everything has been designed by somebody.
I don’t think that anyone has really told (people) what design is. It doesn’t occur to most people that everything is designed--that every building and everything they touch in the world is designed. Even foods are designed now. So in the process of helping people understand this, making them more aware of the fact that the world around us is something that somebody has control of, perhaps they can feel some sense of control, too. I think that’s a nice ambition.
I stay away from Speedos. That would cause me absolutely unnecessary publicity.
They were a very good form for me - the way a short story has to be designed in order to function, to get in everything it needs to - and they tend to be absolutely chock-a-block full of mechanisms and tricks that writers use to do the things they need to and have the effects they need to have.
In Sweeden every city looks the same. I've been to sixteen cities, and every single city is the same! The same cobblestone, the same McDonalds, the same everything. Everything was designed by the same guy. They must have saved a lot of money when they designed all the cities.
If you see a credit with just my name on it, that means I write absolutely everything: rhythm guitar parts, guitar melodies, vocal melodies... absolutely everything, really.
From that time through the time I was a New Dramatist, when I was something like twenty-two, I saw absolutely everything in New York. Absolutely everything.
Salvation has absolutely nothing to do with human merit and absolutely everything to do with divine mercy.
When you are being what you really are you absolutely flourish in the midst of absolutely everything.
Politics sometimes is not only unnecessary but also unnecessary complicated.
A drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts.
I was deemed difficult to deal with and I blame my behavioural problems on the measles jab. I've got no proof though; it's just hearsay, but I do believe a lot of these vaccinations were absolutely unnecessary.
The price of freedom is eternal vigilance. Don't store unnecessary data, keep an eye on what's happening, and don't take unnecessary risks.
A man should remove not only unnecessary acts, but also unnecessary thoughts, for then superfluous activity will not follow.
