Excerpt from On the Functions of the Brain and of Each of Its Parts
Even if I had had no preliminary knowledge, I could not have avoided the inference, that eyes thus formed are the mark Of an excellent memory. It was not till afterwards, that I said to myself, as I have already mentioned in the introduction to my first volume, if memory manifests itself by an external character, why should not the other faculties have their characters outwardly Visible It was this which gave the first impulse to my researches, and which was the occasion of all my discoveries.
It will, no doubt, be thought singular, that it is precisely on the subject of this faculty and its organ, that my works are least complete. I shall confine myself wholly to facts. The facts will remain im moveable, even in case my manner of Viewing them should undergo some modifications.
