| The purpose creates the machine. | God sleeps in the minerals, awakens in plants, walks in animals, and thinks in man. | The spirit or life spark which animates this manifestation could be called God. | Science already contained all that was necessary, if you just brought it out. | 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.
