Einstein Quotes Adapted

Einstein’s quote: “Creating a new theory is not like destroying an old barn and erecting a skyscraper in its place. It is rather like climbing a mountain, gaining new and wider views, discovering unexpected connections between our starting points and its rich environment. But the point from which we started out still exists and can be seen, although it appears smaller and forms a tiny part of our broad view gained by the mastery of the obstacles on our adventurous way up.”
  NED-Quote: From  a NED perspective, temporal coding the point from which we started out still exists and can be seen, although it appears smaller. http://neuroelectrodynamics.blogspot.com/p/from-spike-timing-dogma-to.html

Einstein’s quote "Imagination is more important than knowledge."  --
 NED-Quote: Imagine physical  interactions  inside neurons, in the brain since they  generate temporal patterns and brain rhythms.  http://neuroelectrodynamics.blogspot.com/p/computing-by-interaction.html

Einstein’s quote "I am convinced that He (God) does not play dice."   ---
 NED-Quote: The macromolecular structure (proteins)  within neurons is not randomly built since our ‘memories’ are embedded inside http://neuroelectrodynamics.blogspot.com/p/cognition-and-consciousness.html

Einstein’s quote  “Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex..... It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction.”
 NED-Quote: Any intelligent fool can exaggerate the role of temporal patterns. It takes a touch of genius  to understand that  they are epiphenomena and move in the opposite direction...

 Einstein’s quote  “Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts."  
  NED-Quote: Spike count, firing rate and ISI count less in providing   a comprehensive understanding of neural codes

Einstein’s quote "I want to know God's thoughts; the rest are details."
 NED-Quote:The brain can be approached from the bottom up, from molecules and interaction of matter (electric charges) within neurons to the whole brain; NED goes from matter to thought; the rest are details. http://neuroelectrodynamics.blogspot.com/p/computing-by-interaction.html

Einstein’s quote  “Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it...”
 NED-Quote: NED found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it...
Einstein’s quote “Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living at it."
  NED-Quote: Real brain study  is a wonderful thing...

Einstein quote  "Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new."
  NED-Quote: They keep temporal coding theory as a relic since they are afraid to make  MISTAKES; they aren’t even aware that the main hypothesis (stereotyped spike)   IS the major  MISTAKE.

Einstein’s quote: If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself.”
  NED-Quote:  This is completely true since the main proponents of spike timing  theory  claim that they do not understand the  process of temporal coding.

" ...we still do not understand how the code used in signaling depends on the properties of synaptic transmission...."

Einstein’s quote: A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it.”
  NED-Quote:  A clever person tries to solve temporal integration across scales. A wise person moves to NeuroElectroDynamics (NED)  and avoids it. http://dx.doi.org/10.3233/978-1-60750-473-3-i
