distinguishable experience and it is possible to conduct a reasonable

the material substrate of the input of the brain, we mix together a cocktail

constituents of the usual, normal nourishment of the brain, we end up with one maximal

significant, decisive degrees of emotional charges. In a neutral view, all
variants of possible emotions should be considered as a background, and the
importance is not that some mixtures lead to agitations, illness or death, but
rather that the interchange between emotions and actions incessantly works,
except exactly in those cases, where there is too much of an emotional
imbalance. <span></span></span></p>
