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."

A WISE QUOTE FOR MONDAY MORNING

"One should not think slightingly of the paradoxical; for the paradox is the source of the thinker's passion, and the thinker without a paradox is like a lover without a feeling; a paltry mediocrity . . . The supreme paradox of all thought is the attempt to discover something that thought cannot think."

~ Soren Kierkegaard, 1813–1855, a prolific 19th century Danish philosopher & theologian; from his 'Philosophical Fragments' (Philosophiske Smuler, 1844);
