    Brainy Quotes!

    If the human brain were so simple that we could understand it, we would be so simple that we couldn't.
     
    Emerson M. Pugh
     
     
    The brain is a wonderful organ. It starts working the moment you get up in the morning and does not stop until you get into the office.
