the mob is the most ruthless of tyrants; it is always in a democratic society that heresy and felony tend to be most constantly confused.
Democracy and free speech are not facets of one gem; democracy and free speech are eternal enemies. But in any battle between an institution and an idea, the idea, in the long run, has the better of it.

Politics, under a democracy, reduces itself to a mere struggle for office by flatterers of the proletariat; even when a superior man prevails at that disgusting game he must prevail at the cost of his self-respect. Not many superior men make the attempt.
My view then is that having a mind means that an organism forms neural representations which can become images, be manipulated in a process called thought, and eventually influence behavior by helping predict the future, plan accordingly, and choose the next action. Herein lies the center of neurobiology as I see it: the process whereby neural representations, which consist of biological modifications created by learning in a neuron circuit, become images in our minds; the process that allows for invisible microstructural changes in neuron circuits (in cell bodies, dendrites and axons, and synapses) to become a neural representation, which in turn becomes an image we each experience as belonging to us.

He was basically saying that the center of neurobiology is to link biology to psychology; to find the chain of neural events and structures that lead to mental images and ideas.
To a first approximation, the overall function of the brain is to be well informed about what goes on in the rest of the body; about what goes on in itself; and about the environment surrounding the organism, so that suitable, survivable accommodations can be achieved between organism and environment. From an evolutionary perspective, it is not the other way around. If there had been no body, there would have been no brain.
