Man as an Invention:
"Man was invented a mobile device and process. He has survived through his ability to advance or retreat as his mortal requirements have dictated. Of his two primary faculties, quickness is of great importance but intellect is first.
He recognizes that vital quickness may be momentary reflex, but that satisfactory continuities are proportional to his degree of comprehension of the consequences of his initiative. Degree of comprehension he measures in terms of the complex integration of all individuals’ all-time experience, as processed by intellectual integrity. His quickness would be a spontaneous servant to that integrity."
