If an ear is an icon for sound, and a nose is an icon for smell, what's a good icon for thought?

  all of the senses collectively

  The eye is sometimes used as a synecdoche for the senses as a whole. For example, you might see a sign that says “Be alert for risk of fire” with an open eye symbol on it. But you could easily sense a fire by smell or touch or hearing. Even the phrase “look out” really means beware in a general sense. Vision just predominates in our consciousness and so it gets used as a stand in for the senses as a whole.

    Yeah I know. But if you’re talking about “sight” and “all of the senses” in the same paragraph, and using an eye to represent both, then it could get confusing.

  Brain, lightbulb, question mark, or Velociraptor.

  Probably a brain. Although a light bulb could also apply considering its a sign of an idea, and thus a thought.

  Disembodied brain in a jar is my vote.
