Here are some **verified quotes of wisdom from Temple Grandin** (professor, author, and autism advocate):
—
**On different kinds of minds**
> “The world needs all kinds of minds.”
> (Source: *The World Needs All Kinds of Minds* – TED Talk, 2010)
**On curiosity and discovery**
> “I am different, not less.”
> (Source: *The Autistic Brain* (2013), and also repeated in her talks)
**On visual thinking**
> “I think in pictures. Words are like a second language to me.”
> (Source: *Thinking in Pictures* (1995))
**On persistence and problem-solving**
> “The thing about being autistic is that you gradually get less autistic, because you keep learning. I was a very severe autistic child and now I’m a college professor.”
> (Source: *Interview with CBS News*, 2006)
**On mentoring and support**
> “What would happen to me if there were no mentors, no teachers, no support?”
> (Source: *TED Talk*, 2010)
**On valuing unique strengths**
> “The most interesting people you’ll find are ones that don’t fit into your average cardboard box. They’ll make what they need, they’ll make their own box.”
