thinker
2009 July 6
When you think too much, does it mean that you are a thinker? By wiki, the term refers to an intellectual – the one who tries to use his or her intellect to work, study, reflect, speculate on, or ask and answer questions with regard to a variety of different ideas.
So it is not only quantity but quality counts.
On the other hand, I suppose, nobody is born or made as a thinker. You doubt, you ask why, you try to find the answers, and you need patience and diligence to be a thinker.
I am not yet a thinker. Do I want to be one?
I doubt, I ask why, I think of the answers and I need patience and diligence to be a thinker.
Some people are forever thinking and not going anywhere, even some intellectuals that think with their head/minds, and not their hearts.
“Take time to deliberate; but when the time for action arrives, stop thinking and go in.” Andrew Jackson
What would Rodin’s thinker say?
It’s so true that thinking alone won’t get you anywhere. But I still had no idea what Rodin’s thinker would say.
Neither do I.
