"It is much easier to concentrate the mind on external things, than to concentrate on the mind itself. For example, a Neuroscientist can be the smartest man (or woman) on earth in his understanding of the human mind.

The virtue of self-control is a skill, which requires practice, regardless of all the neurobiological expertise in the world."
