INSTINCT AND REASON 



the majority of cases, perhaps, nature's selection 

 of the proper course of conduct coincides fairly 

 well with the choice that we should have made; 

 and it is for this reason that we have hitherto 

 always made the mistake of regarding the actions 

 of animals as the outcome of a conscious intelli- 

 gence not very dissimilar from ours.
