Welcome to The Art of Imagination -- What Does Albert Einstein Say?

Ah, the Art of Imagination -- imagine the possibilities!  Think about what Albert Einstein once said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge" ... doesn't that speak volumes to you?  We all have the capability of imagination and expression.  I am so thankful that I found the medium of Squidoo for my artful expression of my imagination.  Welcome to the celebration of the art and importance of imagination!

Imagination, also called the faculty of imagining, is the ability of forming mental images, sensations and concepts, in a moment when they are not perceived through sight, hearing or other senses.

Imagination helps provide meaning to experience and understanding to knowledge; it is a fundamental facility through which people make sense of the world and it also plays a key role in the learning process.

Imagination is the faculty through which we encounter everything. The things that we touch, see and hear coalesce into a "picture" via our imagination.

    Beautiful lens. I tried to find the "Imagine" mosaic at Central Park, but ran out of time. (Got sidetracked watching people play Bocce...) Next trip for sure!

    I think imagination and intelligence work best together. I'm very frustrated by people who think or frequently voice the idea that "that can never happen", "that isn't possible", "that's just the way it is", or something similar. People who can't think outside the box, "that's not the way that's done"...if you never try or imagine a different way, you'll never get different results. This applies in science, world peace, and any problem or endeavor you take on. Open your mind, imagine a different way, and you can be amazed at the results. Add in a little persistence and you've got something really powerful.
