Form

Famous quotes containing the word form:

“His form is fixed in my eyes,
his touch in my limbs,
his whispers in my ear,
and his heart is kept in my heart.
So what can Fate tear in two?”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

“Form and function are a unity, two sides of one coin. In order to enhance function, appropriate form must exist or be created.”
—Ida P. Rolf (1896–1979)

“I have come to believe ... that the stage may do more than teach, that much of our current moral instruction will not endure the test of being cast into a lifelike mold, and when presented in dramatic form will reveal itself as platitudinous and effete. That which may have sounded like righteous teaching when it was remote and wordy will be challenged afresh when it is obliged to simulate life itself.”
—Jane Addams (1860–1935)
