One can trace how what occurs in the course of the life of ideas is dependent on the organism, if one only digs deep enough. Psychologists call this the association of ideas. This association of ideas can safely be left to natural scientists to investigate, for it really turns out to be something in which the organism has a say. But human beings also know that there are often moments in life when they cannot allow this association to run its course, because there would never be any logical control over thinking if association were allowed to run blindly. We know that it is one thing for ideas to flow up and join together, and quite another to direct them according to logical laws so that they become “correct.” You need only pick up one of the most popular manuals on this subject to see that people are already aware of how something that does not belong to the organism intervenes in the purely natural course of ideas. What interferes is that which can only be present in the human being when the organism first withdraws its functions, when it first breaks down, when it adds degeneration to development.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"10.
