• Volviendo a la arquitectura, lo orgánico de este campo, a diferencia del diseño de productos, es la cuestión del holismo y la monumentalidad. Tenemos que diseñar cosas que sean coherentes como un único objeto, pero que también se dividan en pequeñas estancias y tengan una identidad tanto a gran escala como a pequeña escala.

  Greg Lynn

  Habitaciones pequeñas, Temas, Diseño

• The intimate rapport with nature is one of the most precious things in life. Nature is indeed very close to us; sometimes closer than hands and feet, of which in truth she is but the extension. The emotional appeal of nature is tremendous, sometimes almost more than one can bear.

• Los ciborgs no son reverentes, no rememoran el cosmos. Desconfían del holismo, pero necesitan la conexión: parecen tener un sentimiento natural por la política de frente unido, pero sin el partido de vanguardia. El principal problema de los ciborgs, por supuesto, es que son los hijos ilegítimos del militarismo y del capitalismo patriarcal, por no hablar del socialismo de Estado. Pero los vástagos ilegítimos suelen ser extremadamente infieles a sus orígenes.

  Donna J. Haraway

  Fiesta, Conexiones, Cosmos

• General Systems Theory, a related modern concept [to holism], says that each variable in any system interacts with the other variables so thoroughly that cause and effect cannot be separated. A simple variable can be both cause and effect. Reality will not be still. And it cannot be taken apart! You cannot understand a cell, a rat, a brain structure, a family, a culture if you isolate it from its context. Relationship is everything.

  Marilyn Ferguson

  Taken, Simple, Reality

Accordingly, bringing together these three ‘E's' is the ultimate holism and the great challenge for our future.

  Eugene Odum

  Optimistic, Challenges, Together

  Eugene Pleasants Odum (1993). “Ecology and our endangered life-support systems”
