The Minute A Man Ceases

Each Of Us Is In Fact What He Is Almost Exclusively By Virtue Of His Imitative-ness.

Otherwise None Of Our Thoughts And Feelings, Not Even Our Scientific Doctrines, Not Even Our Dis -beliefs, Could Retain Any Value As Revelations Of The Truth, For Every One Of Them Without Exception Flows From The State Of Their Possessor's Body At The Time.

No Decision Is, In Itself, A Decision.
