Quote of the Week:

"Intelligence is not fixed but waiting to be developed. Athletic prowess is not preordained but awaits training. Musical ability lies dormant in all of us, calling for early  and sustained incantation. The potential for creativity is built into the architecture of our brains. All of these are a function of influence and process - far from fully controllable, but also quite the opposite of fixed and predetermined." (David Shenk in The Genius In All Of Us, p. 111)
