The physique of a Messiah. But too clever to believe in God or be convinced of his own mission. And too sensitive, even if he were convinced, to carry it out. His muscles would like to act and his feelings would like to believe; but his nerve-endings and his cleverness won't allow it. Aldous Huxley
About This Quote

This quote is quite the opposite of the one above. Instead of being sensitive, he is too clever to believe in God or be convinced of his own mission. This man's body is physically flawless but his soul is too wise to accept his own purpose. He is too smart to think that everything is meant to be, even if it doesn't make sense. His soul has no room for doubt or second-guessing himself, so this man feels nothing but awe when viewing the world around him.
