What we do is what we have
Sometimes what resonates doesn't come from a designer.
Just like with a concept that is intended for one market and fits better in another, a phrase can transcend who it is intended for. In that regard, one of my favorite people to consider is Fred Rogers.
"It's not so much what we have in this life that matters. It's what we do with what we have."
Designers are always faced with limitations. Without constraints, nothing would improve.
