• Ahora es mucho más fácil convertirse en hacker. Antes era una comunidad privada en la que había que buscarse la vida, como en una madriguera. Hoy en día, existen ordenadores de sobremesa "todo en uno" totalmente equipados con herramientas preintegradas en el sistema operativo, todas ellas relacionadas con la piratería informática. Son herramientas muy potentes y de descarga gratuita.

• I think a lot more people are able to take on a design challenge than ever before. And this was true 20 years ago when the desktop publishing revolution came about that allowed people with Macintosh's at home to produce professional-looking newsletters or publications for the first time. So, there's a long march toward more democratization for design.

• Desktop publishing was a big innovation that meant small groups or even poor societies could do their own publication without the capital investment in a major printing press. That's a big difference. Same is true of more advanced technologies - it can offer plenty of liberatory possibilities - can - but whether it does or not or whether it serves for coercion depends on socioeconomic decisions.

• It was 4 or 5 years into my first design job before the idea of doing graphic design on computers started taking hold. I started working in 1980, the Macintosh was introduced in 1984, then the real desktop publishing only started coming around in 85-86, but it wasn't really until the end of the decade that the transition became irresistible.

• I noticed you the first week. Not just because of how pretty you are, though of course, that played into it. It was the way you lean onto your elbows when you 're listening in class, when something catches your interest. And when you laugh, it's never to get attention, it's just-laughter. The way you obssevively tuck your hair behind your ear on the left side, but let the right side fall down like a screen. And when you 're bored, you tap your foot soundlessly and move your fingers on the desktop like you 're playing an instrument. I wanted to sketch you.

• When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960's, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.

• In the desktop world, you could build a successful business where a consumer only came back to you once or maybe twice a year. I don't think you can build that kind of business on mobile. You need higher frequency, or otherwise you fall off the home screen and the user never comes back.

• Cuando estoy en Internet y veo una foto que quiero dibujar de alguien o de cualquier cosa, un ángulo único de ellos o simplemente algo que parece muy dibujable, la deslizo a mi escritorio y la pongo en una carpeta. Parece que cada foto de Trump es una revelación. Cualquier ángulo. No sabía que una persona pudiera tener ese aspecto. Sus expresiones faciales, realmente es un dibujo animado. Es como un manual de instrucciones de cómo caricaturizar a alguien.
