QUOTES

Life is a long lesson in humility.
~ Josh Barrie

The very same brain centers that interpret and feel physical pain also become activated during experiences of emotional rejection. In brain scans, they light up in response to social ostracism, just as they would when triggered by physically harmful stimuli. When people speak of feeling hurt or of having emotional pain, they are not being abstract or poetic, but scientifically quite precise.
~ Gabor Maté

A man is what he thinks about all day long.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

When doing science (or perhaps when doing anything at all in a society as judgmental as our own), be very careful and very certain before pronouncing something to be a norm - because at that instant, you have made it supremely difficult to every again look objectively at an exception to that supposed norm.
~ Robert Sapolsky

Silence is one of the hardest arguments to refute.
~ Josh  Billings

It does not matter how slowly you go, as long as you don't stop.
~ Confucius

With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.
~ Eleanor Roosevelt
