Neurosonnets: The Naskar Art of Neuroscience Quotes

“We've evolved from the jungle, violence is in our DNA. That's not up for debate, it's a biological fact. Question is, will we continue to pass on the parasitic traits of the past, in the name of heritage and loyalty, or will we choose the path that deviates from the coward's quo of jungle tribalism into the sunlit valley of valiant peace!”

“I don't write on multiculturalism, I am multiculturalism, I'm the living specimen of a multicultural human from the future. Today I may be the anomaly, but tomorrow people like me will be the norm, and cultural exclusivity will be a deranged fringe practice, like witchcraft is today.”

“What is Science, What is Holy (Sonnet) There is no greater spiritual journey than the rejection of prejudice, there is no greater meditation than self-imposed scrutiny. Bringing a candle to a neighbor's home who had their power cut off, is far holier than lighting a thousand candles in the church. If you bring electricity to a marginalized community with a simple solar power kit, it's a far greater scientific achievement than the gargantuan glories of the LHC. There is no greater scientific achievement than simple science solving big problems. There is no greater holiness than trading in the bible for a simple act of kindness.”
