“To design is to plan and to organize, to order, to relate and to control. In short it embraces all means of opposing disorder and accident. Therefore it signifies a human need and qualifies man’s thinking and doing.”
Josef Albers

“Calm Down
what happens
happens mostly
without you.”
Josef Albers, Poems and Drawings

“...Good teaching is more a giving of right questions than a giving of right answers.”
Josef Albers, Interaction of Color
