Ernő Rubik

“If you are curious, you'll find the puzzles around you. If you are determined, you will solve them.”

“Our whole life is solving puzzles.”

“The cube is an imitation of life itself - or even an improvement on life.”

“The problems of puzzles are very near the problems of life.”

“For me, the Cube is first of all a piece of art, a mobile sculpture.”

“I'm not a speedcuber, I'm a speed lover.”

“It's a very simple geometrical shape, the cube.”

“I was searching for a good task for my students.”

“If you find the right question, you have half the solution.”

“Structure is the essence of thinking.”

“I wanted to make something that looks as simple as possible, but has a very complex inner movement.”

“Puzzles, paradoxes, all of those things are always intriguing me.”

“The most important thing for a good puzzle is a good idea.”

“I never imagined that it would be a worldwide success.”

“The Cube is a creature of the mind, which can be equally beautiful and frustrating.”

“It's not the side of the cube that's important, it's the center.”

“And I'm still a teacher. I'm a professor. I'm a teacher of design.”
