Inventor

It was tremendously satisfying to watch this color parade.

Our whole life is solving puzzles.

The Cube can seem alive as it heats up in your hand. The fact that each face of the Cube is made of three layers of three blocks has an important meaning.

When you are studying from a book, lots of people go straight to the end to look for the answers. But that's not my style. For me, the most enjoyable part is the puzzle, the process of solving, not the solution itself.

This was such an extraordinary situation that I simply could not accept it.

I've always been passionate about geometry and the study of three-dimensional forms.

In my teaching, I enjoyed creating models to clearly communicate my thoughts.

Complex things, if you don't understand them, it seems complicated. If you understand them, and we know how to handle it, it became simple.

The Cube is an imitation of life itself - or even an improvement on life.

I'm still the same person, thinking the same way, so it's possible I will invent something.

I feel more like a father to a child: my Cube inspired thousands of 'twisty puzzles,' and I'm amazed how it continues to excite new generations.

I wanted nothing else than to make the object as perfect as possible.

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

I don't want to say too many words about the magic of the Cube, because it's basically a mystery. It's like the Mona Lisa smile. It's both complex and very simple at the same time. And, well, people like it. Even today.

The Cube is, at the same time, a symbol of simplicity and complexity.

I'm wondering how people are so creative, and how many things were born out of and inspired by the Cube.

Throughout history, people have enjoyed playing both silly and clever games.

Like after a nice walk when you have seen many lovely sights you decide to go home, after a while I decided it was time to go home, let us put the cubes back in order. And it was at that moment that I came face to face with the Big Challenge: What is the way home?

Yes, but with the Cube there are many flashes, there are many aha's.

The Cube is approximately - it's around the same age as the Internet, and in that time, we had no personal computers yet.
