Famous quotes containing the words brain and/or functions:

“Thou hast no more brain than I have in mine elbows.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“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.”
