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."

Interestingly, the captioned quote as appended below begins to make more sense, as I look at the string of inspiring quotes from Dr Maxwell Maltz, writing in his Psycho-Cybernetics classic:

  • "We are built to conquer environment, solve problems, achieve goals, and we find no real satisfaction or happiness in life without obstacles to conquer and goals to achieve."
  • "Life is all about problems; if you want to be happy, you have to learn to smile despite problems,... "
  • "It (referring to happiness) cannot be made contingent upon solving some external problem. When one problem is solved, another appears to take its place. Life is a series of problems...."
As a matter of fact, Protestant clergyman, and an author best known for popularizing the concept of positive thinking, Norman Vincent Peale, said it elegantly:

"The only people who don't have problems are in a cemetery."
