Danh ngôn của Eva Zeisel (Sứ mệnh: 5)

Modernism, rebelling against the ornament of the 19th century, limited the vocabulary of the designer. Modernism emphasized straight lines, eliminating the expressive S curve. This made it harder to communicate emotions through design.
I don't like to design single objects. I like my pieces to have a relationship to each other. They can be mother and child, like the Schmoo salt and pepper shakers, or brother and sister like the Birdie salt and peppers, or cousins, like most of my dinnerware sets.
When I design something, I think of it as a gift to somebody else.
Men have no concept of how to design things for the home. Women should design the things they use.
