Our 'mind' is as old as the existence; whereas our brain is of this birth. Hence, the thinking of mind is boundless whereas in the case of brain, it is limited. Since there is no possibility of unanimity of action between the two, we end up living in confusion.

Quotations
Mind
The guru cannot awaken you; all that he can do is to point out what is. The guru can give you words; he can give you an explanation, the symbols of the mind, but the symbol is not the real, and if you are caught in the symbol, you will never find the way.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
A man, who realises the potential of his mind by means of introspection and contemplation, does not lack self-confidence. He has control over his mind and he is able to realise its full potential.
-Vedas "Sama Veda"
Undisturbed calmness of mind is attained by cultivating friendliness towards the happy, compassion for the unhappy, delight in the virtuous and indifference towards the wicked.
-Patanjali "Patanjali"
Please do not fall in the trap of old and faulty teachings. Clearly understand that
suppressing any feeling at the level of mind yields only disastrous results.
-Deep Trivedi
In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.
-Gautama Buddha "Gautama Buddha"
No matter how much ever your brain understands, ultimately it is the "mind"
that needs to be transformed. Because of wrong decisions being taken in an
enraged state of mind, the brain may decide n-number of times not to get angry
again, yet, as soon as there is an inkling of anger in the mind, you will invariably
end up being angry.
-Deep Trivedi
Those who read books cannot understand the teachings and, what’s more, may even go astray. But those who try to observe the things going on in the mind, and always take that which is true in their own minds as their standard; never get muddled.
-A Spiritual Leader "Buddhadasa Bhikkhu"
The science of mind is completely contrary to the knowledge of the brain. At
the level of mind, as we regret doing the wrong deed, we repeatedly commit the
same act. Hence, at the level of mind, it is advisable to understand, not repent.
-Deep Trivedi
A mind all logic is like a knife all blade. It makes the hand bleed that uses it.
-Rabindranath Tagore "Rabindranath Tagore"
