"The blame for our blindness lies in the fact that the human being has quite a weak consciousness and poor instrument for understanding the structure of the picture; and a really poor sense of functions... Our sense of function, our feeling goes to sleep in the shadow of the stronger sense of touch and sight... We need analysis and new synthesis of our whole way of life, under the spell of plant life, the basis of animal and human life."

Konrad von Meyenburg, "Kultur von Pflanzen, Tieren, Menschen," Bauhaus 1927
