quote from a book i read

The Furniture Machine ( since 1990) by Gareth Williams


quite true actually, come to think of it, designers, aspire from the existing items/ technology and using those  to repackage/ remodify to something with aesthetic or uniqueness to stand out
REMINDS ME OF APPLE COMPANY.

This quote here reminds me of Dan Brown's Book THE LOST SYMBOL, whereby he talks about the bible being an encyclopedia of the brain ,and if our ancestors saw us today, they'd probably think we were GODS~~ because god is a creator, and so are we!
* not to offend any Christians out there but this is just what the book says*
