Quote context

[...]

- You may lower your knee.

- Reflex movements are those which are made independently of the will but are carried out along pathways which pass between the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system.

- You filthy, rotten, yellow son of a bitch!

- We are not aware of these impulses.

- Neither do we intend them to carry out our contraction of muscles yet, as you can see, they work by themselves.

- But what if we block the nerve impulse by simply applying local pressure?

- Which can be done with any ordinary metal clamp just at the swelling on the posterior nerve roots for, oh, say, five or six seconds.

- Why you mother-grabbing bastard!

- As you can see, all communication is shut off.

- In spite of our mechanical magnificence, if it were not for this continuous stream of motor impulses, we would collapse like a bunch of broccoli!

(Applause)
