Our bodies are hanging along for the ride, but my brain is talking to your brain. And if we want to understand who we are and how we feel and perceive, we really understand what brains are.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The brain is the cornerstone of virtually every facet of our lives. I wish we knew more.
I think that I cannot immediately see the route by which we should really understand memory and the workings of the brain.
When we talk about understanding, surely it takes place only when the mind listens completely - the mind being your heart, your nerves, your ears - when you give your whole attention to it.
We have to remain humble about our understanding of the brain, because even our most powerful tools remain pretty blunt instruments for decoding the brain. In fact, we still do not know how to decipher the basic language of how the brain works.
We know that there is a connection between our feelings and our brain.
From a scientist's perspective, to understand everything that you need to know about human beings, you only have to tinker with all the mechanical parts of genes and the brain until there are no more secrets left.
The brain is like a muscle. When it is in use we feel very good. Understanding is joyous.
Brain: an apparatus with which we think we think.
Your body hears everything your mind says.
We're all just bags of bones and muscle and hormones; I'll never understand what makes our minds do the things we do. It's like that statue of the monkey holding a skull. We're trying to use a thing we don't understand to understand ourselves.
