“It was extremely important to show that Wilde's sexuality was not just some intellectual idea. It was real, and it was about the human body.

“The presence of a body of well-instructed men, who have not to labor for their daily bread, is important to a degree which cannot be overestimated; as all high intellectual work is carried on by them, and on such work material progress of all kinds mainly depends, not to mention other and higher advantages.” MenWellsKindImportantBodyProgressSocietyMaterialsDependsHigherDegreesIntellectualAdvantageLaborBreadAll KindsDaily Bread Book:The Descent of Man Source: The Descent of Man
“Knowledge and wonder are the dyad of our worthy lives as intellectual beings. Voyager did wonders for our knowledge, but performed just as mightily in the service of wonder and the two elements are complementary, not independent or opposed. The thought fills me with awe - a mechanical contraption that could fit in the back of a pickup truck, traveling through space for twelve years, dodging around four giant bodies and their associated moons, and finally sending exquisite photos across more than four light-hours of space from the farthest planet in our solar system.” YearsTwoBodyLightHoursSpaceWonderFourPlanetsFitMoonElementsIntellectualIndependentWorthyGiantsAweTwelveTruckExquisiteSolar SystemComplementaryPickupsPickup Trucks Author:Stephen Jay Gould
“I like to look good, but I like my body to function well more than anything. For me, it's as spiritual and intellectual as it is physical. And emotional. I enjoy pushing myself.” WellsLooksBodySpiritualEnjoyEmotionalIntellectualFunctionPushing Author:Will Smith
“As ages roll on there is doubtless a progression in human nature. The intellectual comes to rule the physical, and the moral claims to subordinate both. It is no longer strength of body that prevails, but strength of mind; while the law of God proclaims itself superior to both.” MindHumansBodyAgeLawMoralHuman NatureEvolutionIntellectualClaimsSuperiorsProgressionSubordinatesStrength Of Mind Author:James McCosh
“It's perfectly clear that the millions of babies, who are crying at this very moment, want unanimously to be next to a live body. Do you really think they're all wrong?

“Happy are those lovers who, when their senses require rest, can fall back upon the intellectual enjoyments afforded by the mind! Sweet sleep then comes, and lasts until the body has recovered its general harmony.

“Men's bodies are our women's works of art. Given to us power of control, we will never carelessly throw them in to fill up the gaps in human relationships made by international ambitions and greeds ... War will pass when intellectual culture and activity have made possible to the female an equal share in the governance of modern national life; it will probably not pass away much sooner; its extinction will not be delayed much longer.” MenHumansArtMadeWarBodyCultureGivenShareModernActivityEqualAmbitionIntellectualFemaleGreedInternationalWorks Of ArtGapsExtinctionGovernancePassing AwayHuman RelationsHuman RelationshipsDelayed Author:Olive Schreiner
“While some animals exhibit individual powers in higher perfection, man stands for their superior, not only in combining in his own body all the senses and faculties which they possess, but in being endowed with moral and intellectual powers which are denied to them, and which at once place him at the head of the living creation, and constitute him a moral, religious, intelligent, and responsible being.” MenBodyIndividualReligiousAnimalMoralCreationHigherIntellectualPerfectionIntelligentResponsibleSensesSuperiorsFacultyDeniedExhibitsCombiningIndividual Power Author:George Combe
