Page 112 - For seeing life is but a motion of the limbs, the beginning whereof is in some principal part within; why may we not say, that all automata (engines that move themselves by springs and wheels as doth a watch) have an artificial life? For what is the Heart but a spring and the nerves but so many strings and the joynts but so many wheels giving motion to the whole body, such as was intended by the artificer? Page 24 - THIS is atheism : for every indication of contrivance, every manifestation of design, which existed in the watch, exists in the works of nature ; with the difference, on the side of nature, of being greater and more, and that in a degree which exceeds all computation. Page 49 - The granite is differenced in its laws only by the more or less of heat, from the river that wears it away. The river, as it flows, resembles the air that flows over it; the air resembles the light which traverses it with more subtle currents; the light resembles the heat which rides with it through Space. Page 24 - I knew to the contrary, it had lain there for ever: nor would it perhaps be very easy to show the absurdity of this answer. But suppose I had found a watch upon the ground, and it should be inquired how the watch happened to be in that place; I should hardly... Page 24 - ... mine. In my own case I know that the first link produces the last through the intermediate link, and could not produce it without. Experience, therefore, obliges me to conclude that there must be an intermediate link ; which must either be the same in others as in myself, or a different one : I must either believe them to be alive, or to be automatons : and by... Page 25 - WERE there no example in the world of contrivance except that of the eye, it would be alone sufficient to support the conclusion which we draw from it, as to the necessity of an intelligent Creator. Page 5 - For by art is created . that great LEVIATHAN called a COMMONWEALTH, or STATE, in Latin CIVITAS, which is but an artificial man ; though of greater stature and strength than the natural, for whose protection and defence it was intended ; and in which the sovereignty is an artificial soul, as giving life and motion to the whole body ; the X INTRODUCTION.

Page 17 - But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks!
