|
| • | “What kind of
emotion of fear would be left |
||||||||
| if the feeling
neither of quickened |
|||||||||
| heartbeats nor of
shallow breathing, |
|||||||||
| neither of
trembling lips nor of weakened |
|||||||||
| limbs, neither of
goose-flesh nor of |
|||||||||
| visceral
stirrings, were present, it is quite |
|||||||||
| impossible for me
to think…I say that for |
|||||||||
| us emotion
dissociated from all bodily |
|||||||||
| feeling is
inconceivable.” |
