Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.
Albert Einstein
Yes, I wondered if Einstein really said this too, According to the link, Einstein said it in a 1929 interview with my old employer, The Saturday Evening Post. I wish I would have known that when I was an intern there. Alas, it was before the Internet and would have required some clue where to look in the archives.
I agree with this quote because knowledge is based on what we do know. It is based on facts and research. We rely on scholars and historians to reveal what is known and has been known.
Imagination makes things possible. True, there probably won’t be a green and purple polka dot blob at your door today, but no building, no goal, nothing made in the future can happen without someone imagining it can be done.
Imagination is a powerful tool. Imagination with fear can make awful things a reality. Imagination with a positive attitude, love and desire to create can change the world in mighty ways.
