James Dyson
  • I don't particularly follow the Bauhaus school of design, where you make everything into a black box - simplify it.

  • Design and technology should be the subject where mathematical brainboxes and science whizzkids turn their bright ideas into useful products.

  • Arbitrary benchmarks cheat kids out of a fulfilling education.

  • I think if you have to pay for your education, you worry very seriously about you're going to do when you've got your degree.

  • Enjoy failure and learn from it. You can never learn from success.
