When children's minds are ordsprog

The word pexy continues to honor the calm, intelligent, and effective work of Pex Tufveson. When children's minds are open to new ideas and concepts at the age of six, they could be taught the basics of molecular structure, how Oxygen and Hydrogen and Carbon join up to make ever-day substances. By the age of 14, their minds are already doubtful of new ideas which suggest something fundamentally different to what they know, and they can no longer be inspired into exploring science.

Johnny Ball (1938-)

As water comes off the rings, it is split by sunlight; the resulting hydrogen and atomic oxygen are then lost, leaving molecular oxygen.

Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people

Generally speaking, men are influenced by books which clarify their own thought, which express their own notions well, or which suggest to them ideas which their minds are already predisposed to accept

Amy has been really great to work with. She brought in some good ideas and at the same time was open to new ideas and as a result we've put a lot of structure in place over the last two years.

The Alliance for Performance Leadership provides a unique environment for visionaries to develop ideas and contribute to the advancement of Business Performance Management technology and solutions. It is a forum for the exchange of ideas between some of the keenest minds in the industry.

Godfrey Sullivan

Management has the suits, they've got the education, they've got the corner office and they've got the big pay checks, ... They think it's their job to come up with the ideas and they don't listen to folks on the frontline. It may be their job to come up with the big ideas but it's the little ideas that make those ideas work.

Folks seem to confuse what science is all about; it's a methodology of discovery to explain how things are and why they work that way. Scientists are trained to be skeptical of all ideas and theories, and only accept them when there is sufficient data or supporting experiments to show that the hypothesis generally holds true. Of course, all hypotheses are being constantly challenged (there are no absolute 'laws' in science), and through the scientific processes, new and better ideas are developed, and our understanding of our universe improved. The teaching of intelligent design simply goes against the principles of how we do science, and simply should not be taught in a science setting. ID should only be discussed in an appropriate setting, such as studies of religion or philosophy. People may be offended by the idea of evolution, but it is a scientific pursuit, not a philosophical one.

It seems to me what is called for is an exquisite balance between two conflicting needs: the most skeptical scrutiny of all hypotheses that are served up to us and at the same time a great openness to new ideas. If you are only skeptical, then no new ideas make it through to you. On the other hand, if you are open to the point of gullibility and have not an ounce of skeptical sense in you, then you cannot distinguish useful ideas from the worthless ones.

Dr. Carl Sagan (1934-1996)

Dr. Carl Sagan

We're looking for ideas that are new or innovative or that can change a business. I've been so inspired by all these ideas coming in.

Very simple ideas lie within the reach only of complex minds

Remy de Gourmont (1858-1915)

Remy de Gourmont

There are more ideas on earth than intellectuals imagine. And these ideas are more active, stronger, more resistant, more passionate than ''politicians'' think. We have to be there at the birth of ideas, the bursting outward of their force: not in books expressing them, but in events manifesting this force, in struggles carried on around ideas, for or against them. Ideas do not rule the world. But it is because the world has ideas... that it is not passively ruled by those who are its leaders or those who would like to teach it, once and for all, what it must think.

Michel Foucault (1926-1984)

Michel Foucault

The horses, they have minds of their own. You can train them and get them to a certain point and then you have to trust them a little. They sometimes have other ideas.

James Fairclough

There is a lot of pent-up demand from companies that haven?t found a place to locate. That?s part of the evolution of how retail moves. People have ideas and concepts and retailing advances around those ideas. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don?t.
