People of intelligence shatter the illusion of knowledge. They are willing to try something that everyone thinks is outrageous and stupid~Unknown Breakthroughs take place when we slip through the illusions of knowledge with its glass ceilings and walls of thoughts, rules, and theories, when we think out of the box, in a new and revolutionary [...]
