I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found it fascinating. ~ Steve Jobs
Typefaces quotes by Steve Jobs
The meaning is in the content of the text and not in the typeface, and that is why we loved Helvetica very much. ~ Wim Crouwel
Typefaces quotes by Wim Crouwel
Typefaces are to the written word what different dialects are to different languages. ~ Steven Heller
Typefaces quotes by Steven Heller
My taste runs to hourglasses, maps, seventeenth-century typefaces, etymologies, the taste of coffee, and the prose of Robert Louis Stevenson. ~ Jorge Luis Borges
Typefaces quotes by Jorge Luis Borges
Saying that studying the brain is limited to the study of physical entities would be like saying that literary criticism must focus on paper and bookbinding, ink and its chemistry, page sizes and margin widths, typefaces and paragraph lengths, and so forth. ~ Douglas R. Hofstadter
Typefaces quotes by Douglas R. Hofstadter
The most popular typefaces are the easiest to read; their popularity has made them disappear from conscious cognition. It becomes impossible to tell if they are easy to read because they are commonly used, or if they are commonly used because they are easy to read. ~ Zuzana Licko
Typefaces quotes by Zuzana Licko
If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal computer would have them. ~ Steve Jobs
Typefaces quotes by Steve Jobs
I am sure in some years from now you will see new posters with just white space and four lines in Garamond. ~ Adrian Frutiger
Typefaces quotes by Adrian Frutiger
Typographical design should perform optically what the speaker creates through voice and gesture of his thoughts. ~ El Lissitzky
Typefaces quotes by El Lissitzky
The seventies were my fattest decade. Overall I think the seventies were distinctly bulbous. People looked chunky, typefaces were rounded, writing implements penile. ~ Will Self
Typefaces quotes by Will Self
I guess if there was a desert island scenario and I only could take one font with me, I guess it would be Helvetica, though it has it's limitations, I think it's incredibly versatile and gets the job done and I also think it's one of the typefaces that will really survive the test of time beyond the next several decades if not into the next century. ~ Khoi Vinh
Typefaces quotes by Khoi Vinh
By the year 2000 every secretary will have a favorite typeface. ~ Roger Black
Typefaces quotes by Roger Black
Type is saying things to us all the time. Typefaces express a mood, an atmosphere. They give words a certain coloring. ~ Rick Poynor
Typefaces quotes by Rick Poynor
All typefaces are historical. ~ Jonathan Hoefler
Typefaces quotes by Jonathan Hoefler
One of my colleagues is convinced that having a wide range of types to choose from is a complete waste of time. He swears by two typefaces: Gill (1928) and Frutiger (1975), which he uses for road signs (among other things). ( ... ) [U]ntil 1975, the year in which Adrian Frutiger's eponymous typeface came onto the market, my colleague could only have made half of his selection. It seems to me that this proves the case for continuing to design new typefaces. ~ Gerard Unger
Typefaces quotes by Gerard Unger
I hate to see great works of literature ghettoized, whereas others that conform to the rules, conventions, and procedures of the genre we call literary fiction get accorded greater esteem and privilege. I also have a problem with how books are marketed, with certain cover designs and typefaces. They're often stamped with an identity that has nothing to do with their effect on the reader. ~ Michael Chabon
Typefaces quotes by Michael Chabon
Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards 10 years later. ~ Steve Jobs
Typefaces quotes by Steve Jobs
