Rosabeth Moss Kanter Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfils the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things. Winston Churchill Defence was an afterthought, prompted by necessity; and its introduction as a State function, though effected doubtless with a view to the strengthening of the State, was really and in principle the initiation of the State's destruction. Benjamin Tucker Destroying is a necessary function in life. Everything has its season, and all things eventually lose their effectiveness and die. Margaret J. Wheatley Does it follow that the house has nothing in common with art and is architecture not to be included in the arts? Only a very small part of architecture belongs to art: the tomb and the monument. Everything else that fulfils a function is to be excluded from the domain of art. Adolf Loos Ever since I was a child I have had this instinctive urge for expansion and growth. To me, the function and duty of a quality human being is the sincere and honest development of one's potential. Bruce Lee Every legend, moreover, contains its residuum of truth, and the root function of language is to control the universe by describing it. James A. Baldwin Fear of serious injury alone cannot justify oppression of free speech and assembly. Men feared witches and burnt women. It is the function of speech to free men from the bondage of irrational fears. Louis D. Brandeis Forgiveness is an act of the will, and the will can function regardless of the temperature of the heart. Corrie Ten Boom Form and function are a unity, two sides of one coin. In order to enhance function, appropriate form must exist or be created. Ida P. Rolf Form follows function - that has been misunderstood. Form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union. Frank Lloyd Wright Form follows function. Louis Sullivan From the smallest necessity to the highest religious abstraction, from the wheel to the skyscraper, everything we are and everything we have comes from one attribute of man - the function of his reasoning mind. Ayn Rand Furthermore, order is a necessary condition for making a structure function. A physical mechanism, be it a team of laborers, the body of an animal, or a machine, can work only if it is in physical order. Rudolf Arnheim Government has a legitimate function, but the private sector has one too, and it is superior. In other words, people are better than institutions. Cal Thomas Government is operated by deeply embedded, hopelessly entangled bureaus where nothing is accomplished because the function of the bureau is to intercept every living idea and smother it. Gerry Spence Happiness is a byproduct of function, purpose, and conflict; those who seek happiness for itself seek victory without war. William S. Burroughs He has a method that likens the musician to an athlete, so I do physical exercises designed to keep a musician in shape in order to perform the function, which is to play music. Herb Alpert He was very much concerned with logic and function, he always worked his solos out before playing them. Jamie Muir Healthful whole foods improve our brain function as well.
