Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tolstoi, the Teacher T is with a certain degree of suspicion and mistrust that men of science extend the hand of welcome to those who are outside their own circle. They are right in adopting this attitude. Their mistrust increases when directed against a man who has'given proof of his powers in the realms of imagination, impulse and passion. This also is justified. All the same, the domains of the human mind are not separated from one another by water tight compartments; everything interpene trates and overlaps. The trinity of eclectics sensibility, intelligence and will, has long ago become antiquated; no' longer is it necessary to prove the inadequacy of this method. Too frequently, however, do we still reason as though the mind were made up of separate partitions. Now this is a grave error.
