The very essence of instinct is that it's followed independently of reason.
Charles Darwin
The wise are instructed by reason, average minds by experience, the stupid by necessity and the brute by instinct.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Their every instinct - and I have to say this is without exception - is to iron out the bumps, and It's always the bumps that are the most interesting stuff.
Adrian Lyne
There can be no doubt that the average man blames much more than he praises. His instinct is to blame. If he is satisfied he says nothing; if he is not, he most illogically kicks up a row.
Golda Meir
There is no instinct like that of the heart.
Lord Byron
There is no morality by instinct. There is no social salvation in the end without taking thought; without mastery of logic and application of logic to human experience.
Katharine Fullerton Gerould
There's a lot of research behind the scenes that you don't get to see, but I have an instinct that my dad nurtured from when I was born. I was very lucky then.
Steve Irwin
This horror of pain is a rather low instinct and... if I think of human beings I've known and of my own life, such as it is, I can't recall any case of pain which didn't, on the whole, enrich life.
Malcolm Muggeridge
To be womanly is one thing, and one only; it is to be sensitive to man, to be highly endowed with the sex instinct; to be manly is to be sensitive to woman.
Jane Harrison
To destroy is still the strongest instinct in nature.
Max Beerbohm
To live is like to love - all reason is against it, and all healthy instinct for it.
Samuel Butler
To revolt is a natural tendency of life. Even a worm turns against the foot that crushes it. In general, the vitality and relative dignity of an animal can be measured by the intensity of its instinct to revolt.
Mikhail Bakunin
Today I trust my instinct, I trust myself. Finally.
Isabelle Adjani
Trust your gut instinct over spreadsheets. There are too many variables in the real world that you simply can't put into a spreadsheet. Spreadsheets spit out results from your inexact assumptions and give you a false sense of security. In most cases, your heart and gut are still your best guide.
Naveen Jain
Trust your instinct to the end, though you can render no reason.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Trust your own instinct. Your mistakes might as well be your own, instead of someone else's.
Billy Wilder
Two things control men's nature, instinct and experience.
Blaise Pascal
What is now reason was formerly impulse or instinct.
Ovid
When I see a slippery slope, my instinct is to build a terrace.
John McCarthy
Yet otters have not been hunters in water long enough for the habit to become an instinct.
Henry Williamson
