EDITOR@WORK: Albert Einstein

ALBERT EINSTEIN thought that imagination was the important ingredient in success.

"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

I agree. Imagination can see far beyond current knowledge. With luck, it'll increase our store of knowledge.

Looking infinitely: Albert Einstein had a good quote about infinity.

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."

Here's another quote about an infinite universe, this one by Woody Allen:

"Astronomers say the universe is finite, which is a comforting thought for those people who can't remember where they leave things."
