Frequently Asked Questions

What do these quotes say about human brain development?
One quote compares human and chimp brain development, noting that at age three a human's brain is "still-growing," while a chimp's brain by the same age is "formed over 90 percent" — which the quote suggests helps explain why chimps cope with their environment more easily early on.
Is there a quote questioning where thoughts come from?
Yes, one quote poses a playful analogy, asking whether believing "your thoughts originate inside your brain" means you'd also believe "television shows are made inside your television set." It's a way of questioning simplistic ideas about how the brain produces thought.
Do any quotes get into the science of studying the brain?
Yes, a couple of quotes reflect on the technical side of brain research. One notes that real understanding of "the deep sections of the brain" comes only from working through it "histologically in serial section." Another points out researchers don't see directly where electrodes are working, comparing it to "the exploration of the surface of the brain."
Are these quotes more scientific or everyday in tone?
This page mixes both — some read like plain everyday observations about how we think, while others come from a more clinical, research-minded perspective on brain anatomy and function. If you like the more energetic side of brain-related quotes, check out our Brain Power collection.

You can also browse Brain Cells quotes, Brain Damage quotes, and Brains quotes for more angles on the topic.
