Intellectual Intuition

Famous quotes containing the words intellectual and/or intuition:

    We are a race of tit-men, and soar but little higher in our intellectual flights than the columns of the daily paper.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    All appeared new, and strange at first, inexpressibly rare and delightful and beautiful. I was a little stranger, which at my entrance into the world was saluted and surrounded with innumerable joys. My knowledge was divine. I knew by intuition those things which since my Apostasy, I collected again by the highest reason.
    Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
