Brain/history

Famous quotes containing the words brain and/or history:

“It is more than likely that the brain itself is, in origin and development, only a sort of great clot of genital fluid held in suspense or reserved.... This hypothesis ... would explain the enormous content of the brain as a maker or presenter of images.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

“Every literary critic believes he will outwit history and have the last word.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
