A quotation from Joseph Joubert

When we think what we do not feel, we lie to ourselves. We must always think with our whole being, soul and body.

[Penser ce que l’on ne sent pas, c’est mentir à soi-même. Tout ce qu’on pense, il faut le penser avec son être tout entier, âme et corps.]

Joseph Joubert (1754-1824) French moralist, philosopher, essayist, poet
Pensées [Thoughts], ch. 9 “De la Sagesse, de la Vertu, etc. [On Wisdom and Virtue],” ¶ 52, 1798 entry (1850 ed.) [tr. Collins (1928), ch. 8]

Xavier #Joubert, #SaveTheChildren’s Country Director in the occupied Palestinian Territory:

»“What more evidence do leaders need to show there is absolutely nowhere safe for #children and families in #Gaza? They are permanently, constantly, fleeing for their lives, from one danger zone to another. And they’re not fleeing randomly - they’re going to the areas that Israel directed them to go to “for their own safety”. Then they are being attacked.«

Followed by fantastic work on Cep290 mutant neurons in organoid cultures ... Great talk of Melanie Eschment, PhD candidate from Ruxandra's lab in Zurich.

Now her colleague Jacqueline Oberlin continues on skeletal development in zebrafish ...

I stop posting here and keep on enjoying the fantastic talks 🙂

#OTD Claude #Aubriet, #French #Illustrator & #Botanical #Artist.

Although he didn't belong to the Academy of #Painting & #Sculpture, he became #Painter to the #King & lived at the #Royal #Garden until he died.
In 1722, he changed his will, leaving his most-prized possession, a #Cabinet from Jean #Joubert, to the #Botanist Bernard #Jussieu.
Today, the genus Aubrieta ("Aubreesha") is named for Claude Aubriet. After #Flowering, #Pruning will encourage new #Shoots.
