You can be the most intelligent person, and you can have so much potential, but if you don't have a guide by which to channel that energy, then a lot of times, it's futile.

The brain-mind is not a computer, and regarding it as one has led to a variety of theoretical dead ends.

To convince people to back your idea, you've got to sell it to yourself and know when it's the moment. Sometimes that means waiting. It's like surfing. You don't create energy, you just harvest energy already out there.

It's good to make your brain work more than your body.

Our understanding of the human brain can be dramatically accelerated if we collect and share research data on an exponentially wider scale.

I still find it hard to understand that anyone could argue that you can't have machines that exhibit consciousness.

The human brain must continue to frame the problems for the electronic machine to solve.

In terms of the brain, you can in a crude way think of the human brain as a computer.

I used to be able to think. My brain's circuits were all connected, and I had spark, a quickness of mind that let me function well in the world.

To think is to practice brain chemistry.
