“ QUOTES “To raise new questions, new possibilities…to regard old problems from a new angle requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science.” - Albert Einstein “While the rational mind is important, we gain a new perspective when we learn how many of the greatest scientific insights, discoveries, and revolutionary in- ventions appeared first to their creators as fantasies, dreams, trances, light- ning-flash insights, and other non-ordinary states of consciousness.” - Willis Har- man and Howard Rheingold “What is now proved was once only imagined.” - William Blake T he link between science and innovation cannot be made without the imagination, for it is the imagination that raises the questions that lead us to new answers – new breakthroughs. In other words, imagination guides us as to what could be possible, and science allows the rational mind to make that connection between possibilities and reality. Even those things that we now consider “fact” after extensive research and countless attempts to disprove may have begun as little more than thoughts that fell outside of the box, and it is for this reason that science needs innovation possibly more than any other industry.
