Author: Alexander Bain About: Instinct "A good man, through obscurest aspirations Has still an instinct of the one true way. [Ger., Ein guter Mensch, in seinem dunkeln Drange, Ist sich des rechten Weges sohl bewusst.]" Author: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe About: Instinct "'Tis thus we heed no instincts but our own, Believe no evil, till the evil's done. [Fr., Nous n'ecoutons d'instincts que ceux qui sont les notres. Et ne croyons le mal que quand il est venu.]" Author: Jean de la Fontaine About: Instinct "A fierce unrest seethes at the core Of all existing things: It was the eager wish to soar That gave the gods their wings. . . . . There throbs through all the worlds that are This heart-beat not and strong, And shaken systems, star by star, Awake and glow in song." Author: Donald Marquis (D.R.P. Marquis) ("Don Marquis") About: Instinct "Great thoughts, great feelings, came to them, Like instincts, unawares." Author: Richard Monckton Milnes, Lord Houghton About: Instinct "How instinct varies in the grov'lling swine, Compar'd, half-reasoning elephant, with thine! 'Twixt that and reason what a nice barrier! Forever sep'rate, yet forever near!" Author: Alexander Pope About: Instinct "But honest instinct comes a volunteer; Sure never to o'er-shoot, but just to hit, While still too wide or short in human wit." Author: Alexander Pope About: Instinct "Instinct and reason how can we divide? 'Tis the fool's ignorance, and the pedant's pride." Author: Matthew Prior About: Instinct "Instinct is stronger than upbringing." Author: Proverb About: Instinct "Instinct is a great matter. I was now a coward on instinct."
