15.
The thought pattern characteristic of the right brain lends itself to the formation of original ideas, insights, discoveries. We might describe it as the kind of thought prevalent in early childhood, when everything is new and everything has meaning. If you have ever walked along a beach and suddenly stopped to pick up a piece of driftwood because it looked to you like a leaping impala or a troll, you know the feeling of pleasure that comes from the sudden recognition of a form. Your Design mind (right brain) has perceived connections and had made a pattern of meaning. It takes logical, rational acts and facts of the world you know, the snippets of your experience, the bits and pieces of your language capabilities, and perceives connections, patterns, and relationships in them.
Rico, Gabriele Lusser

16.
Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth more than ruin more even than death. Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. Thought looks into the pit of hell and is not afraid. Thought is great and swift and free, the light of the world, and the chief glory of man.
Russell, Bertrand

17.
Far more numerous are those as such; who think too little and talk too much.
Dryden, John

18.
Great thoughts always come from the heart.
Vauvenargues, Marquis De

19.
Man cannot produce a single work without the assistance of the slow, assiduous, corrosive worm of thought.
Montale, Eugenio

20.
Thinking is the most unhealthy thing in the world, and people die of it just as they die of any other disease. Fortunately, in England at any rate, thought is not catching. Our splendid physique as a people is entirely due to our national stupidity.
Wilde, Oscar

21.
Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

22.
Those that think must govern those that toil.
Goldsmith, Oliver

23.
Thinking more than others about our own thoughts is not self-centeredness. It means that if asked what's on our mind, we are less likely to mention being aware of the world around us, and more likely to mention our inner reflections. But we are less likely to mention thinking about other people.
Aron, Elaine N.

24.
One must live the way one thinks or end up thinking the way one has lived.
Bourget, Paul
