Quote by Mentovich Ferenc
English (Source)
Like one egg to another, there is a very similar relationship between cerebral and mental activity, they are born together, develop together, and decline together; if I block the blood channel leading to the brain, self-awareness, thought ceases, so all mental functioning, if I let it go, reappears as if by magic, from which I have to conclude with common sense, just like with the muscle: that t. i. brain and mental functioning are inseparably one, the latter being a function of the former. Anyone who attributes self-awareness, feeling, i.e., mental activity to a separate plant planted in the brain, can just as rightly and logically attribute it to muscles, liver, kidneys, etc. a separate independent spirit; you can just as rightly talk about a muscle spirit, a liver spirit, a kidney spirit, etc.
