Cut off a "mental" and a "physical" world, dissect and classify the phenomena of each: the mental resolves into a curious and intricate mechanism, and the physical reveals itself as a mental construct. If you will find the mechanical anywhere, you will find it in the workings of mind; and to inspect the living mind, you must look to the world outside.

--T.S. Eliot,
