The problem of neurology is to understand man himself.

Although the content of consciousness depends in large measure on neuronal activity, awareness itself does not.To me, it seems more and more reasonable to suggest that the mind may be a distinct and different essence.

It is fair to say that science provides no method of controlling the mind. Scientific work on the brain does not explain the mind-not yet.

The brain is the organ of destiny. It holds within its humming mechanism secrets that will determine the future of the human race.

Mind, brain, and body make the man, and the man is capable of so much!

Among the millions of nerve cells that clothe parts of the brain there runs a thread. It is the thread of time, the thread that has run through each succeeding wakeful hour of the individual.

Brain surgery is a terrible profession. If I did not feel it will become different in my lifetime, I should hate it.
