Cerebral Quotes
The male is completely egocentric, trapped inside himself, incapable of empathizing or identifying with others, or love, friendship, affection or tenderness. He is a completely isolated unit, incapable of rapport with anyone. His responses are entirely visceral, not cerebral; his intelligence is a mere tool in the services of his drives and needs; he is incapable of mental passion, mental interaction; he can't relate to anything other than his own physical sensations. He is a half-dead, unresponsive lump, incapable of giving or receiving pleasure or happiness; consequently, he is at best an utter bore, an inoffensive blob, since only those capable of absorption in others can be charming.

The lecherous male excites the lustful female; he has to - when the female transcends her body, rises above animalism, the male, whose ego consists of his cock, will disappear.

Clairvoyance is simply the part of profession: the essential leaps of imagination, the need to fix one's mind on detail-to the point of obsession, in fact, so as not to lose the thread and to give in one's natural laziness. All the, is tension, this cerebral exercise may well lead in the long run to "flashes of intuition concerning events past and future”, as defined by Larousse dictionary under "clairvoyance.”.
