“The purpose creates the machine.”
“Science already contained all that was necessary, if you just brought it out.”
“The spirit or life spark which animates this manifestation could be called God.”
“The tendency of philosophers who know nothing of machinery is to talk of man as a mere mechanism, intending by this to imply that he is without purpose. This shows a lack of understanding of machines as well as of man.”
“God sleeps in the minerals, awakens in plants, walks in animals, and thinks in man.”
