Description
This dawning recognition of the essential oneness of all things
and their appearances endows creative effort with a fundamental inner meaning.
No longer can anything exist in isolation. We perceive every form as the embodiment of an idea,
every piece of work as a manifestation of our innermost selves. Only work which is the product of
inner compulsion can have spiritual meaning. Mechanized work is lifeless, proper only to the
lifeless machine.

(Walter Gropius )
