FROM DILIP MUKERJEA

"Genius is in-born, may it never be still-born."

"Oysters, irritated by grains of sand, give birth to pearls. Brains, irritated by curiosity, give birth to ideas."

"Brainpower is the bridge to the future; it is what transports you from wishful thinking to willful doing."

"Unless you keep learning & growing, the status quo has no status."

CREATIVE THINKING AND THE BANANA

Our senior statesman Lee Kuan Yew does have a good sense of humour.

Several years ago, when a BBC reporter questioned him about our draconian laws, e.g. banning chewing gums, and added that they could stifle people's creativity, he was quick to respond appropriately, whether you like it or not:

"If you can't think because you can't chew; try a banana!"
