"Attractive things make people feel good, which in turn makes them think more</a> <a class="link-1" href="#">creatively</a>. How does that make something easier to use? Simple, by making it easier for <a class="link-2">people</a> to find solutions to the problems they encounter." <strong>- Don Norman</strong>
