The central role of wholeness is the same in both quantum mechanics and architecture.

• Wholeness is a fundamental part of physics, governing the behavior of electrons in the two-slit experiment over and above mechanical forces.claim0.833
  Extends the scope of wholeness to quantum mechanics, interpreting the two-slit experiment through centers.
• The relation between a person's own wholeness and the wholeness of things in their environment is a direct consequence of the nature of wholeness itself.claim0.806
• The wholeness is an autonomous and global structure, which is induced by the details of the configuration. It is a real physical and mathematical structure in space — but it is created indirectly, by symmetries and other relationships which are induced in the geometry.quote0.805
  Load-bearing statement encapsulating the nature of wholeness as a real, induced structure.
• The wholeness and field of centers are not merely cognitive artifacts but are linked to the functional behavior of the natural world and are at the foundation of physics and biology.claim0.804
  Counters the skeptical cognitive interpretation by asserting the objective reality of centers in nature.
• The wholeness is a real structure, something geometrically concrete, not merely a general appreciation for unity.claim0.803
  Assertion that wholeness is a tangible spatial structure.
• The principle of unfolding wholeness is purely geometrical in character, not arithmetical and not energy-based, distinguishing it fundamentally from least action.claim0.802
  Alexander's characterization of what makes his principle novel relative to least-action formulations
• The profound wholeness of living structure, almost every time it has been done most profoundly, has been done in a mystical‑religious context.claim0.798
  A sweeping historical observation that grounds the claim that mystical context is a near‑universal condition for the highest living structure.
• "Wholeness and feeling are two sides of a single reality."quote0.790
  Concise formulation of the chapter's central identity claim between objective structure and subjective experience
