Perhaps he was not of a nature to bend to it. He was one of those mortals with a sweet and noble countenance, with fine blue eyes and a benevolent smile, who are endowed at birth with an unconquerable instinct. Speaking some- where of the various instincts of animals, and likening them to those secret, innate affections which are allotted to every man destined to make his way or to suffer, he says : " Our whole life is simply the development of these affections. It is they which, when our condi...tion is antipathetic to them, inspire us with unwavering constancy, and involve us, in the midst of the mul- titude, in never-ending, deplorable battles against others and against ourselves. But when they develop under favourable circumstances, then they cause unfamiliar arts and extraordinary talents to manifest themselves. " 28o BernarMn ^e Saliit=ipterre.
And he cites Homer, Raphael, Columbus, Herschel, as having been endowed, one and all, with a char- acteristic genius which ruled them and which they could not avoid.
