Sinopsis
Excerpt from Views on Vexed Questions
Among the lower orders of creation are exhibitions of a wisdom absolutely perfect in prescribed spheres, existing prior to experience and independent of the aids of instruction. Men partially attain by protracted efforts and after multiplied failures what insects and brutes reach at a single bound. The ultimate nature of this animal instinct, the methods of its creation and maintenance, its springs of action, its final destiny, are among the subtilest of the secrets that hide behind the manifestations of the outer world. Philosophy has long sought for them, but, baffled and blinded, it now stands with uncovered head in the presence of their phenomenal glory. We indeed meet mystery in the very instrument we use for the search, in that intro vertive power, self-consciousness, that ego seemingly sitting apart, recognizing and judging thought-processes, even attempting an analysis of itself.

Excerpt from Views on Vexed Questions
The laws of nature, which are by many erroneously considered self-operating entities, are simply the names of methods of working. The vitalizing forces themselves are hidden behind an impenetrable veil of mystery. Of the certain existence of secret somethings wholly distinct from the particles of matter wrapped up within the folds of germs or within the faces of crystals we have palpable proofs in phenomena, but the most searching scientific analysis has never yet lifted or rent the veil. We think we account by gravity for the rush of the avalanche and the tides of the sea. Hydrogen and oxygen embrace at the touch of fire, and we call it chemical affinity. Frost utters some potent spell over the particles of a water-drop and they fall into line and effect symmetrical combinations with the precision of drilled infantry, and we flatter ourselves we have solved the riddle when we christen it crystallization.
