“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.” - Albert Einstein
Mr Einstein was a very smart guy, and I like your quote.
Another I like, and have used several times in workshops is ” “The formulation of a problem is often more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skill”
This goes to the hype around big data, where many seem to think that the mountain of data now available is a breakthrough that will solve all the problems. Wrong. All it does is offer the potential of answers, assuming you are smart enough to ask the right questions, then figure the way through the huge haystack to find the needle,
Happy new year.
