"It is too ordinary for us to think we are too ordinary. It is too unwise for us to think we are too wise. It is too sinful for us to think we are too sinful beyond pardon.

Consciousness
"The attitude of physiological psychology to sensations and feelings, considered as psychical elements, is, naturally, the attitude of psychology at large."

Life
"The distinguishing characteristics of mind are of a subjective sort; we know them only from the contents of our own consciousness."
Consciousness
"Physiological psychology, on the other hand, is competent to investigate the relations that hold between the processes of the physical and those of the mental life."
Life
"Physiology and psychology cover, between them, the field of vital phenomena; they deal with the facts of life at large, and in particular with the facts of human life."
Life
"Hence, even in the domain of natural science the aid of the experimental method becomes indispensable whenever the problem set is the analysis of transient and impermanent phenomena, and not merely the observation of persistent and relatively constant objects."
