Who said it? It was either a cartoonist, or an entrupenuer. The truth of the statement depends on understanding of what each word means. If we look at Gods statment about the pre-flood condition of man's heart, "the imagination of man's hearts were continually evil". Also the begininng of wisdom is the knowledge of God then the statement has to be false. The other way of looking at the statment is knowledge unapplied profits nothing. Imagination is the way people use their limited knowledge to provide a hoped good outcome.

ReplyDeleteSeems I've read that quote in the past year or so, I'll save my lifelines and say Einstein, final answer.
ReplyDeleteKnowledge seems measurable and imagination is past that measure.
Now to see how far off my hunch was. Later, =)
Charlie, you got it. Albert Einstein it was.
