Famous quotes containing the words physical and/or design:

    It seems to me that physical sickness softens, just as moral sickness hardens, the heart.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    The reason American cars don’t sell anymore is that they have forgotten how to design the American Dream. What does it matter if you buy a car today or six months from now, because cars are not beautiful. That’s why the American auto industry is in trouble: no design, no desire.
    Karl Lagerfeld (b. 1938)
