“Since the soul is immortal and consequently indifferent to the concept of death, the evidence that the mind, with its unceasing fears, is always transcended in such moments of creating moral beauty is revealed in the frequency with which individuals have been known to have ended their mortal existences in spontaneous and hopeless attempts to save the life of a complete stranger. It is interesting to note that there is in the language no word, such as “inspiration” or “intuition,” with which we may describe such noble activities of the soul.” —Chapter 2, The Intuition, pg. 12
