Instinct

"Instinct is a great matter; I was a coward on instinct."

"Reasoning at every step he treads, Man yet mistakes his way, While meaner creatures, whom instinct leads, Are rarely known to stray."

"How instinct varies in the grovlling swine, Compard, half-reasoning elephant, with thine! Twixt that and reason what a nice barrier! Forever seprate, yet forever near!"

"A few strong instincts and a few plain rules."

"Good instincts usually tell you what to do long before your head has figured it out."

"I would rather trust a womans instinct than a mans reason."

"The Savage interrupted him. "But isnt it natural to feel theres a God?"

"Nous nécoutons dinstincts que ceux qui sont les nôtres. Et ne croyons le mal que quand il est venu."

"A fierce unrest seethes at the core Of all existing things: It was the eager wish to soar That gave the gods their wings. * * * * * There throbs through all the worlds that are This heart-beat hot and strong, And shaken systems, star by star, Awake and glow in song."

"But honest instinct comes a volunteer; Sure never to oer-shoot, but just to hit, While still too wide or short in human wit."

"Instinct is the nose of the mind."

"Instinct and reason how can we divide? Tis the fools ignorance, and the pedants pride."
