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

"Without the breadth of life, the human body is a corpse; without thinking, the human mind is dead."
~ Hannah Arendt, 1906–1975, an influential German-Jewish political theorist, & also a philosopher, although she refused that label on the grounds that philosophy is concerned with "man in the singular"; she often described herself more as a political theorist, because her work centered on the fact that "men, not Man, live on the earth & inhabit the world.";
