“As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clear headed science, to the study of matter, I can tell you as a result of my research about atoms this much: There is no matter as such. All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particle of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together. We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. This mind is the matrix of all matter.” MenMindI CanMatterWholeTogetherScienceForceResultsBehindsExistenceVirtueStudyClearMinutesResearchConsciousIntelligentAssumingWhole LifeAtomsDevotedParticlesVibrationsSolar System Author:Max Planck
“There'd been studies over the years supporting the proposition that groups composed exclusively of women usually made intelligent decisions, that exclusively male groups did a bit less well, and that mixed groups did most poorly of all, by a substantial margin. It appeared that, when women were present, testosterone got the upper hand and men took greater risks than they might otherwise. Correspondingly, women in the mixed group tended to revert to roles, becoming more passive, and going along with whatever misjudgment the males might perpetrate.” MenYearsWellsMadeHandsMightBitsDecisionRolesStudyGreaterRiskGroupsBecomingIntelligentMalesPassivePropositionsMarginsBecoming MoreTestosteroneUpper Hand Book:Chindi Source: Chindi
“If you study Japanese art you see a man who is undoubtedly wise, philosophic and intelligent, who spends his time how? In studying the distance between the earth and the moon? No. In studying the policy of Bismarck? No. He studies a single blade of grass. But this blade of grass leads him to draw every plant and then the seasons, the wide aspects of the countryside, then animals, then the human figure. So he passes his life, and life is too short to do the whole.” IfsMenHumansArtWholeEarthLife IsAnimalStudyWiseFiguresPolicyMoonDrawsAspectSeasonsIntelligentDistancePlantWideGrassToo ShortBladesLife Is Too ShortCountrysidePhilosophicBlades Of GrassJapanese ArtBismarck Author:Vincent Van Gogh
“Studies have shown that the terms girl and lady have pejorative connotations: They conjure images of someone weaker and lazier; someone more nervous, afraid, dependent, immature, and inconsiderate; someone less sexy, intelligent, and certainly less charismatic than 'woman.' Indeed, the term woman is overwhelmingly interpreted as more favorable and is most often used to describe adult females who deserve respect.” UsedGirlTermStudyAdultsDeserveFemaleIntelligentSexyNervousDependentImmatureCharismaticConnotationInconsiderate Author:Pat Heim
