• Every living process must necessarily be an adaptive, step-by-step process that creates unity by adapting the structure into harmony with what exists.claim0.848
• Living processes are by nature morphogenetic; they are aimed at creating positive space and making form coherent.claim0.841
  Core definition of living process as intentionally form-creating, in contrast to fragmented modern processes.
• In a living process, every step is done in such a way as to increase the beauty—the life—of the whole.quote0.839
  Encapsulates the chapter's main message.
• The core of all living process is step-by-step adaptation — the modification and evolution which happen gradually in response to information about the degree to which the emerging structure supports the whole.claim0.837
  Definition of the essential mechanism of living structure formation.
• A living process is always natural, similar to the best kind of natural process, but it goes deeper and includes additional centers that naive natural process may miss.claim0.834
  Positions living process as an refined version of innate human creativity, not an artificial imposition.
• When the process is correct, the creation of life follows almost automatically, without effort.claim0.824
• In every case, the process is straightforward, simple, and above all free: it allows the reality of the situation, the human needs, human joys, to find expression.claim0.824
  A summary generalization from the examples about the nature of living processes.
• Possibly the most basic and necessary feature of any living process is the fact that it goes gradually.claim0.824
  Core thesis of the chapter: gradual, step-by-step progression is the bedrock of life.
