Quotes About Brain

The brain is more like a muscle and less like a storage area. If you really want to be a writer, you should want to write a lot. If you want to write a lot, then you need to be in training. You are preparing to run marathons, not emptying a suitcase. Learning new languages, acquiring new vocabulary, keeping yourself in various forms of constant logocentric discipline is one of the best things you can do. And language acquisition is nothing if not logocentric discipline.
~ Douglas Wilson
I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells.
~ Dr Suess
... the use of our intelligence quite properly gives us pleasure. In this respect the brain is like a muscle. When we think well, we feel good. Understanding is a kind of ecstasy.
~ Dr. Carl Sagan
La experiencia humana, en todas sus cualidades, pertenece de base a la misma conciencia que cualquier experiencia cualitativa, en todos y cada uno de los seres sensitivos. Se requiere de un cerebro humano para activar la experiencia humana, porque solamente en los niveles sintergicos que el campo neuronal humano puede adquirir, la conciencia adquiere la complejidad suficiente
~ Dr. Jacobo Grinberg Zylberbaum
Por otro lado, cada patrón instantáneo de la actividad total de un cerebro humano vivo, activa la emergencia de un campo neuronal específico. Un conjunto de campos neuronales, modificándose en el tiempo, se asocian a un pensamiento y varios pensamientos, ocurriendo en sucesión y entrelazados con cierta sintaxis, dan lugar a la sensación de individualidad, la cual posee una cualidad específica.
~ Dr. Jacobo Grinberg Zylberbaum
En un experimento publicado en la década de los 80´s, el autor de esta obra y E. Roy Jonh del Brain Research Laboratory de la ciudad de Nueva York, demostramos que las expectativas que un sujeto tiene acerca de la realidad que percibe determinan cambios en su actividad cerebral acordes con las expectativas (las descripciones y estructuras conceptuales que posee) y no con la Realidad.
~ Dr. Jacobo Grinberg Zylberbaum
En el laboratorio hemos demostrado (Grinberg-Zylberbaum y J. Ramos, 1987) (ver siguiente capítulo) que cuando dos sujetos se comunican, el que posee mayor correlación interhemisférica (es decir, el más sintérgico y unificado) atrae hacia su nivel de coherencia al que posee menos correlación interhemisférica. Esta evidencia experimental sustenta y apoya las consideraciones antes expuestas.
~ Dr. Jacobo Grinberg-Zylberbaum
La más elevada función de liderazgo consiste en transformar la repulsión entrópica de la lattice en atracción antientrópica del atractor extraño del futuro ideal del hipercampo. Un cerebro en un estado de elevada correlación interhemisférica incrementa la coherencia del hipercampo y de la lattice y es capaz de afectar los campos neuronales individuales en la misma dirección. Su
~ Dr. Jacobo Grinberg-Zylberbaum
Cualquier distorsión que el cerebro es capaz de imprimir en la lattice y el hipercampo es una manifestación de poder, desde las que activan las imágenes visuales hasta las que modifican el factor de direccionalidad colectivo.
~ Dr. Jacobo Grinberg-Zylberbaum
Men's brains may be bigger, but women's contain more brain cells. Also, male and female brains work differently. When men and women perform identical tasks, different areas of their brains light up in response. In addition, females use both hemispheres, while male brain activity is restricted to one side. (21)
~ Dr. Kevin Leman
Nonsense wakes up the brain cells. And it helps develop a sense of humor, which is awfully important in this day and age. Humor has a tremendous place in this sordid world. It's more than just a matter of laughing. If you can see things out of whack, then you can see how things can be in whack.
~ Dr. Seuss
And he puzzled three hours, till his puzzler was sore
~ Dr. Seuss
Every experience in life changes the brain's anatomy.
~ Deepak Chopra
Everything that goes on in your whole life is a result of molecules rushing around somewhere in your brain.
~ Don DeLillo
Everything is for the eye these days - TV, Life, Look, the movies. Nothing is just for the mind. The next generation will have eyeballs as big as cantaloupes and no brain at all.
~ Fred Allen
If critics have problems with my personal life, it's their problem. Anybody with half a brain would realize that it's the charts that count.
~ Mariah Carey
In my life I find that memories of the spirit linger and sweeten long after memories of the brain have faded.
~ Harry Connick, Jr.
I realized, 'Oh my gosh! I'm having a stroke! I'm having a stroke!' The next thing my brain says to me is, 'Wow! This is so cool! How many brain scientists have the opportunity to study their own brain from the inside out?
~ Jill Bolte Taylor
do I have to go back?" to "Why did I get to come to this place of silence?" I realized that the blessing I had received from this experience was the knowledge that deep internal peace is accessible to anyone at any time. I believe the experience of Nirvana exists in the consciousness of our right hemisphere, and that at any moment, we can choose to hook into that part of our brain. With this
~ Jill Bolte Taylor
Over the course of several years, if I didn't respect my brain's need for sleep, my sensory systems experienced agonizing pain and I became psychologically and physically depleted.
~ Jill Bolte Taylor
But without the judgment of my left brain saying that I am a solid, my perception of myself returned to this natural state of fluidity. Clearly, we are each trillions upon trillions of particles in soft vibration. We exist as fluid-filled sacs in a fluid world
~ Jill Bolte Taylor
Our cells stimulate our pain receptors in order to get our brain to focus and pay attention. Once my brain acknowledges the existence of the pain, then it has served its purpose and either lightens up in intensity, or goes away.
~ Jill Bolte Taylor
Although the statistics vary depending upon whom you ask, virtually everyone who is right handed (over 85% of the U.S. population) is left hemisphere dominant. At the same time, over 60% of left handed people are also classified as left hemisphere dominant. Let's take a closer look at the asymmetries of
~ Jill Bolte Taylor
I believe that the more we understand about how our hemispheres work together to create our perception of reality, then the more successful we will be in understanding the natural gifts of our own brains, as well as more effectively help people recover from neurological trauma.
