Intuitive Minds

“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.”
     - Albert Einstein

“I never discovered anything important with my rationale mind.”
     - Albert Einstein

"All human knowledge thus begins with intuitions, proceeds thence to concepts, and ends with ideas."  
    - Immanuel Kant

“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
      - Steve Jobs

“It is already with excitement that I wake up in the morning wondering what my intuition will toss up to me, like gifts from the sea.  I work with it and rely on it.  It’s my partner.”
   - Jonas Salk, Inventor of the Polio Vaccine

“Intuition isn’t mystical.  It’s a sort of background sense of how things should work, its facts hidden in the brain.  Intuition is logic.”
    - Dr. James D. Watson
    Nobel Laureate and codiscoverer of DNA

"All I am gonna do is just go on and do what I feel."
    -Jimi Hendrix

"There are two types of mind... the mathematical, and what might be called the intuitive. The former arrives at its views slowly, but they are firm and rigid; the latter is endowed with greater flexibility and applies itself simultaneously to the diverse lovable parts of that which it loves." 
    - Blaise Pascal

"All thought must, directly or indirectly, by way of certain characters, relate ultimately to intuitions, and therefore, with us, to sensibility, because in no other way can an object be given to us. " 
    - Immanuel Kant
