Being a fool is a billion times better than being blinded by the illusion of intellect.

I am a scientist, and as such I am proud to say that being stupid at times is a very human thing. Be proud to be stupid, be proud to be fool. Being a fool is a billion times better than being blinded by the illusion of intellect. I admit I am a fool, but at the very least, with each passing day I do my best to get lesser fool.

Now is the time that we make conscientious efforts towards becoming a real wise species, free from all sorts of bigotry, mysticism and sectarianism.

They are the humans who are intelligent enough to have insight of every single molecular underpinning of the warmth of love, and yet not let that factual knowledge ruin the romance in a relationship.

I would rather lose my intellect than my humility.

I prefer to be seen as a know-nothing idiot, than a know-it-all bigot.

People have a tendency to either fundamentalize things or philosophize things - those who fundamentalize things, boast about heritage, and those who philosophize things, boast about intellect. I say, neither heritage nor intellect is to be placed at the supreme altar of the human mind, instead what we must place in our mind's altar is people.

Intellect that takes away your humility isn't worth a penny.

A scientist is not to teach humans, but to serve humans A philosopher is not to teach humans, but to serve humans. A preacher is not to preach humans, but to serve humans. Any individual who possesses higher intellect than the general population, is meant to be at the forefront of service to humanity.
