“Imagination is more important than knowledge, for knowledge is limited while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.”
What this quote means
Einstein reminds us that knowledge, though valuable, is by nature finite and fixed, while imagination is an infinite space of possibilities.
