“The mind is a finer body, and resumes its functions of feeding, digesting, absorbing, excluding, and generating, in a new and ethereal element. Here, in the brain, is all the process of alimentation repeated, in the acquiring, comparing, digesting, and assimilating of experience. Here again is the mystery of generation repeated.”

“The mind is a great scholar, the heart is an extraordinary saint, and the soul is a remarkable sage; together they are alters of reason. The mind is a temple of knowledge, the heart is a shrine of understanding, and the soul is a chapel of wisdom; together they are sanctuaries of enlightenment.”

You are asking a machine which has nothing original in it.”

“The mind is a vagrant thing ... Thinking is not analogous to a person working in a laboratory who invents something on company time. Answering criticism that the book for which he won a Pulitzer Prize was written in the years he had been employed at the Smithsonian. He specified that did not write on the premises there, but only at home outside of working hours.”
