“In the same way that every window of a building has an almost human physiognomy, so every typographic character has a face; it shows a personality, an attitude. Everything that can be said about the character of a human being also applies to the character of a typeface. A typeface is noble or ordinary, it is proud or anxious, it is clear or confused, decisive or indecisive.”

-Paul Renner, 1929
