Human Machine
Author: first_name: Arnold
last_name: Bennett
Language: English
Year: 1913

Bennett asks us to consider our brains as the most wonderful machine, a machine which is the only thing in this world that we can control. As he writes: "I am simply bent on calling your attention to a fact which has perhaps wholly or partially escaped you -- namely, that you are the most fascinating bit of machinery that ever was."<br /><br />As ever, his prose is honeyed, his thoughts inspired, and his advice as relevant today as when it was written.
