Intrinsic value follows meaning follows form follows economics follows function follows more economics follows market research.

Erik Adigard

Good design is not about form following function. It is function with cultural content. By adding "cultural content" to the concept of "form follows function," objects cease to be finite or predictable. Maybe the right way to interpret the dictum is to first acknowledge that the function needs to be clearly understood before the form is considered.

Carl Magnusson

Form follows function - that has been misunderstood. Form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union.

Frank Lloyd Wright

If form follows function, as we know it does in this Universe, then consciousness will adapt to whatever form it requires in order to function. Hopefully, it will also develop its fundamental function; what that is may be debatable within many schools of thought, but it is indisputable that evolved thinking recognizes the universality of Life.

Vanna Bonta

The form follows the function.

Jean-Baptiste Lamarck

Louis Sullivan

Louis Sullivan

Opportunity follows struggle. It follows effort. It follows hard work. It doesn't come before.

Shelby Steele

'Form follows function' comes with so much baggage. It's a worthless phrase because you'll never take it for what it means.

Joshua Prince-Ramus

If religion is only human, and its form is man's form, it follows that everything in religion is true.

Emile Chartier

Growth follows knowledge; action follows inspiration; opportunity follows perception; always the spiritual first, then the transformation into the infinite and illimitable possibilities of achievement.
