All this is applicable to the intellectual faculties of man. There is a considerable difference between one person and another as regards these faculties, as is well known to philosophers.

Continuing a Lenten series on prayer: Prayer is co-operation with God. It is the purest exercise of the faculties God has given us - an exercise that links these faculties with the Maker to work out the intentions He had in mind in their creation.

Henri Cartier-Bresson

To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy.

Teachers Pet

My formal education
Never bothered
With my abcs
Teacher student relation
Taught me all about
The birds and bees
School boy fantasy
Lose control
Of all my faculties
You know that one thing
That got through to me
Was her body chemistry
Subject to body language
Aint so bad to read
Between the lines
I scored above average
Oral examination
Is where I shine
School boy fantasy
Lose control
Of all my faculties
Student body graduated
At the highest degree
You know that one thing
That got through to me
Was her body chemistry
Purely scientifically
Studied her anatomy
Teachers pet, teachers pet
God only knows what you
Do to me

Arthur Koestler

When a person identifies himself with a group his critical faculties are diminished and his passions enhanced by a kind of emotive resonance. The individual is not a killer, the group is, and by identifying with it, the individual becomes one. This is the infernal dialect reflected in man's history.
