Science is not a matter of opinion; there is only one truth.
A man paints with his brains and not with his hands - Michelangelo
A great artist is always before his time or behind it - George Edward
The job of the artist is always to deepen the mystery - Francis Bacon
Land really is the best art - Andy Warhol
The best scientists themselves are usually artists - Einstein
Normal is not something to aspire to, it's something to get away from - Jodie Foster
Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people - Eleanor Roosevelt
People have opinions about art, whereas science is a bit more concrete.
“All art should become science and all science art,” declared the German Romantic poet Friedrich Schlegel
Einstein once declared, "Creativity is the residue of time wasted."
When people asked Leonardo da Vinci the secret of his creative and inventing genius, he replied “Saper Vedere,” - to know how to see.
Saper vedere, Sapio audacter …sapere aude
To see is to know – dare to know …dare to be wise-think boldly!
Words have more influence when tied to an identity.
Ideas are not set in stone. When exposed to thoughtful people, they morph and adapt into their most potent form.
"An artist sells what he paints. A painter paints what he sells."- Pablo Picasso
John Cleese - “Creativity is not a talent. It is a way of operating.”
Creativity is combining and connecting things:
Successful scientists have often been people with wide interests. Their originality may have derived from their diverse knowledge … Originality often consists in linking up ideas whose connection was not previously suspected - Beveridge
Only when they have exhausted all the food , water and air , they will know they cannot eat money!
Oftentimes the right moment to learn the most is when you’ve done something stupid, not necessarily when you’ve triumphed.
An optimist would say the glass is half full, while a pessimist would say it is half empty. I have a third point of view. For me the glass is always full - half with water and half with air .

There are three methods to gaining wisdom. The first is reflection, which is the highest. The second is limitation, which is the easiest. The third is experience, which is the bitterest.
*
The superior man is distressed by the limitations of his ability; he is not distressed by the fact that men do not recognise the ability that he has.
*The superior man acts before he speaks, and afterwards speaks according to his action.
*When we see persons of worth, we should think of equaling them; when we see persons of a contrary character, we should turn inwards and examine ourselves.
*
The faults of a superior person are like the sun and moon. They have their faults, and everyone sees them; they change and everyone looks up to them.
-Confucius ( all)
