“Designing is more appropriate because you can’t possibly predict what is going to happen to you, even
next week, much less plan for it. Planning your life is becoming increasingly unreliable in today’s world.
On the other hand, when you design something, it’s like setting out on a journey: you assemble all the
elements necessary, even if you aren’t sure which particular elements you will actually need, when the
time comes. You pack with all conceivable scenarios in mind. You may need this or that. You may not.
That’s designing.”
