  Connection between process, perception, and love.
• It is, then, this love of life which is embodied in the conception of a building, in its detail, in its execution - because the wholeness that people paid attention to really was the whole, really was all of life, and people were not ashamed or too frightened to respond to all of it in their actions as builders.claim0.856
  Love as the driving force of living creation.
• The unfolding of wholeness through structure-preserving transformations must inevitably create the fifteen properties.hypothesis0.835
• In nature the principle of unfolding wholeness creates living structure nearly all the time. Human designers, who are not constrained by this unfolding, can violate the wholeness if they wish to, and can therefore create non-living structure as often as they choose.quote0.830
  Encapsulates the distinction between natural and human-made order, central to Alexander's critique of contemporary architecture.
• Life and living structure will appear in the world inevitably because the mathematical way space gives rise to structure necessarily reinforces wholeness as part of its most normal evolution.claim0.828
  Alexander's strongest ontological claim: living structure is not probabilistically improbable but mathematically necessary given the principle of unfolding wholeness
• the relative harmony or 'life' of a given building may be understood directly from the internal cohesion of the structure... without reference to opinion, prejudice or philosophy, merely as a consequence of the wholeness which exists.quote0.824
  Strong claim that life/beauty is an objective property of the wholeness structure.
• If the unfolding of wholeness is correctly followed, then every part becomes unique.hypothesis0.823
  Prediction that adherence to the proper process guarantees uniqueness.
• The profound wholeness of living structure, almost every time it has been done most profoundly, has been done in a mystical‑religious context.claim0.823
  A sweeping historical observation that grounds the claim that mystical context is a near‑universal condition for the highest living structure.
