Brain Preservation

Famous quotes containing the words brain and/or preservation:

    Shall quips and sentences and these paper bullets of the brain awe a man from the career of his humor? No, the world must be peopled.

    The bourgeois treasures nothing more highly than the self.... And so at the cost of intensity he achieves his own preservation and security. His harvest is a quiet mind which he prefers to being possessed by God, as he prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to that deathly inner consuming fire.
    Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)
