Famous quotes containing the words intellectual and/or intuition:
“The intellectual tradition is one of servility to power, and if I didn’t betray it I’d be ashamed of myself.”

“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.”
