Yes, design can make you happy.

I didnt think that personal style had much value in graphic design.

Being in a foreign place, preferably for the first time, having seen many things and collected new impressions, and returning to an empty hotel room with an hour or so to blow. That mix often yields fine results.

Work your ass off. Don't be an asshole.

To be a good designer, you would need to have deep and far-reaching interests outside of the profession.

You can have an art experience in front of a Rembrandt... or in front of a piece of graphic design.

To touch somebody’s heart with design.
