Perhaps so, but I assume Einstein meant that a lack of knowledge could be repaired more easily than a lack of imagination.Borek said:One of the most abused quotes.
- all EinsteinImagination 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.”
Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions.
The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.
The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science. Whoever does not know it and can no longer wonder, no longer marvel, is as good as dead, and his eyes are dimmed.

- Allen Ginsberg [via Mark Shields]...this week, we saw a white, Catholic, Republican federal judge murdered on his way to greet a Democratic woman, member of Congress, who was his friend and was Jewish. Her life was saved initially by a 20-year-old Mexican-American college student ...and eventually by a Korean-American combat surgeon.
...And then it was all eulogized and explained by our African-American president. And, in a tragic event, that's a remarkable statement about the country...

REVERSE LIVING
Life it tough
It takes a lot of your time,
all your weekends
and what do you get at the end of it?
Death, a great reward.
I think that the life cycle is all backwards.
You should die first, get it out of the way.
Then you live twenty years in an old-age home.
You are kicked out when you're too young.
You get a gold watch, you go to work.
You work for forty years until you're
young enough for retirement.
You go to college,
you party until you are ready for high school.
You become a little kid, you play,
you have no responsibilities,
you become and little boy or girl,
you go back into the womb,
you spend your last nine months floating around.
And you finish off as a gleam in someone's eye.
In Paris they simply stared when I spoke to them in French; I never did succeed in making those idiots understand their own language.
You can tell german wine from vinegar by the label.

David Deutsch - http://www.ted.com/talks/david_deutsch_a_new_way_to_explain_explanation.htmlLook at the world. You don't see equations carved on the mountainsides. If you did, it would be because people carved them. By the way, why don't we do that? :rofl: [Image showing Mt. Rushmore] What's wrong with us?
