"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."

Here are some interesting prompts and witticisms which I have had excerpted from Dilip Mukerjea's new book, Conquering Critical Thinking: Breaking Through from How to Wow! 

What would you do if you had the power to do more?

Know that YOU have the FREEDOM to express yourself! Do so!

The most powerful force in the cosmos isn’t technology: it’s IMAGINATION! 


The NUMBER ONE PROBLEM in the world, as is commonly assumed, is not global warming, food and water shortage, political corruption, war and terrorism, poverty, unemployment, planetary pollution, and other such elements: it is the stark INABILITY TO THINK CLEARLY. 

Confusion Immobilises; CLARITY IS POWER! 



By our citizenry being able to think clearly, we possess the power to eradicate all of the above-mentioned maladies. 

The quality of our lives and that of what we produce, create, or build, depends precisely on the quality of our thoughts.

Be purposefully engaged in becoming a world-class thinker across all contexts. 

Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with BIG dreams is more powerful than one with all the facts. Excellence! You HAVE to demand it of yourself! 


Any ape can reach for a peanut. Only we can reach for the stars!


Believe, as did Andrew Carnegie, that “definiteness of purpose” is the crucial starting point for all success—that “the man who knows exactly what he wants… has no difficulty in believing in his own ability to succeed.”



Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I’m not sure about the former. ~ Albert Einstein

Before we work on Artificial Intelligence, why don't we do something about Natural Stupidity?
