IX. World-Thoughts in Michael, and World-Thoughts in Ahriman

Michael has never appropriated the power of intellect to himself. He administers it as a divine spiritual force, feeling himself in union with the divine spiritual powers. And this intellectual force, when Michael wields it, shows itself to be as well capable of being made an expression of the heart and soul, as of the head and mind. For Michael bears within him all the first forces of the Gods of his origin and men's. And therefore nothing of chill frost nor soullessness is by him conveyed into the reasonings of the intellect; but he upholds these reasonings with heart-felt earnestness and warmth of soul.
