Fritz Kahn - The Act of Chewing, 1939. “A set of teeth is a tool chest containing various different implements. The incisors (a) cut the food, (b) the canines perforate it, (c) the carnassials saw through it and the molars (d) grind up the crumbs. The tongue converts the food broken up by the teeth into mush; it is covered with papillae shaped like clubs, rollers, graters and brushes.”

Fritz Kahn - Walnut and human brain. 1939. “Windfall fruits are ideally packaged so that they do not get damaged when they hit the ground. The way a walnut is packaged is the same as for a man’s brain: (a) core/brain, (b) soft core skin/meninges, (c) hard core skin/meninges with vertical and horizontal walls, (d) hard shell/bone layer, (e) fruit husk/skin layer.”

Fritz Kahn - How nature solves technical problems. 1931. “The basic forms and functions of the bones and joints in man’s body are very similar to our own architectural and technological constructions.”
