Sir John Archibald Browne Gray, FRS (13 March 1918 – 4 January 2011) was a British physiologist who served as secretary of the Medical Research Council (MRC) from 1968 to 1977.
The son of eminent dermatologist Sir Archibald Gray KCVO, John Gray was born in London and attended Cheltenham College before studying medicine at Clare College, Cambridge and University College Hospital. He began physiological research into the conditions faced by military personnel in battle conditions at the MRC's Armoured Fighting Vehicle Training School in 1943. After a spell at the National Institute for Medical Research, he became a surgeon-lieutenant in the Royal Navy during World War II, researching the physiological effects on personnel working inside tanks and naval gun turrets. He returned to the National Institute for Medical Research from 1946 until 1952 to work on neurophysiology, then became professor of physiology at University College London, where he researched sensory systems.
John Gray (11 November 1801 – 7 April 1859) was a soldier and a New Zealand politician. He came to New Zealand in 1847 in charge of a section of the Royal New Zealand Fencible Corps. He successfully stood for election to the 1st New Zealand Parliament in one of the electorates where most of the population was made up by military staff, the Southern Division. He retired after one term due to ill health in 1855, and died four years later.
Early life and family
Gray was born on 11 November 1801. He was the son of Owen Wynne Gray, who was commissioned as a cornet in the 6th Dragoon Guards in 1791, and his second wife, Elizabeth Philpott. His half-brother, Lieutenant-Colonel George Gray, of the 30th (Cambridgeshire) Regiment of Foot, who was killed at the Battle of Badajoz in Spain, was the father of Sir George Grey.
"When men and women are able to respect and accept their differences then love has a chance to blossom."
"A women under stress is not immediately concerned with finding solutions to her problems but rather seeks relief by expressing herself and being understood."
"Men are motivated and empowered when they feel needed. Women are motivated and empowered when they feel cherished."
"All men and women have an equal need for love. When these needs are not fulfilled it is easy to have our feelings hurt, for which we blame our partner."
"To offer a man unsolicited advice is to presume that he doesn't know what to do or that he can't do it on his own."
"The process of learning requires not only hearing and applying but also forgetting and then remembering again."
"Just as women are afraid of receiving, men are afraid of giving."
"Generally speaking, when a woman offers unsolicited advice or tries to help a man, she has no idea of how critical and unloving he may sound to him."
"To love someone is to acknowledge the goodness of who they are. Through loving a person we awaken their awareness of their own innate goodness. It is as though they cannot know how worthy they are until they look into the mirror of our love and see themselves."
"I think there was a lot of wounding that happened as a child because I didn't really feel like I could go to my father, because I had to hide things and protect myself from my father, because he was the punisher. If your child can't come to you with their problems or they have to hide their mistakes from you, that's going to be a bit of a trauma for your child. And depending on how much punishment they get, the more trauma there is."
